The late Whitney Houston will return to the stage as a hologram next year, it has been confirmed.

This inventive new concert experience will feature a setlist of her greatest hits and as-yet-unannounced special guests, and "Ryan Seacrest reports that FilmOn Studios will syndicate the content across all digital and cable platforms".

Hologram USA and FilmOn CEO Alki David issued a statement about the exciting news, which reads: "I was heartbroken when Whitney passed away in 2012. The opportunity to share her spectacular gifts with the world again is exactly what I hoped for when I built the hologram business. I’m confident we’ll create the ultimate celebration of Whitney’s amazing artistry.”

Pat Houston, the singer’s sister and president of her estate, is going to be involved in the production and praised it for continuing the late superstar's legacy: "It’s a great opportunity for her fans to see a reinvention of one the most celebrated female artists in history and to continue a legacy of performances that will not be forgotten in years to come."
