Just a few days after the makers released the first look of Amy Winehouse's biopic 'Back to Black', it is being reported that Jack O'Connell, Eddie Marsan and Lesley Manville have joined the ensemble cast of Amy Winehouse's much-awaited biopic 'Back to Black', which stars Marisa Abela as the Grammy-winning singer who tragically died in 2011. She was 27 years old at the time.

Jack will play the role of Winehouse's beau, Blake Fielder-Civil, in the Sam Taylor-Johnson directorial. The two tied the knot&nbsp;in 2007 but after a tumultuous relationship that was filled with drugs and alcohol, the two filed for divorce in 2019, prior to Winehouse's sudden passing.

Marsan, on the other hand,&nbsp;will play the role of Winehouse's father and Manville will play her maternal grandmother.

Last week, a picture of Marisa Abela as the late English singer-songwriter was released online by the makers. The 26-year-old actress looked&nbsp;like a spitting image of the late singer in the first look post.&nbsp;

The snap showed the actress rocking Winehouse's signature beehive hairstyle and large hoop earrings. Take a look!
