Ronnie Turner chose acting as his career, in spite of his musical talents. Ronnie originally faced a lot of difficulties in gaining a foothold in Hollywood, considering the success and connections of his famous parents. His talent shone through after many challenges and he secured a part in the 1993 film ‘What’s Love Got To Do With It.’
The film was based on the story of his mother Tina Turner who broke free to be a singing phenomenon from his physically and mentally abusive marriage to his father Ike Turner. For his role as part of theIke and Tina Turner Revue’ in the movie, Ronnie is well remembered.
