After being in the works for a long time, Get On Up, the biopic of the legendary Godfather Of Soul, James Brown, is on its way, and we can take our first look with a trailer.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘In his follow-up to the four-time Academy Award®-nominated blockbuster The Help, Tate Taylor directs 42s Chadwick Boseman as James Brown in Get on Up. Based on the incredible life story of the Godfather of Soul, the film will give a fearless look inside the music, moves and moods of Brown, taking audiences on the journey from his impoverished childhood to his evolution into one of the most influential figures of the 20th century. Boseman is joined in the drama by Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Nelsan Ellis, Lennie James, Tika Sumpter, Jill Scott and Dan Aykroyd.’
The movie is due out this summer.
