Film Preview: Get On Up

With many biographical successes in recent years, especially the likes of Ray and Walk the Line, the next musician to be honored is James Brown. The project was announced in 2012 with Mick Jagger being involved as a producer for the film but will not actually feature in the film as the young version of him will be played by Nick Eversman. Chadwick Boseman takes up the lead role with Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer reuniting since their work on The Help. 


A biography of the life of James Brown (Chadwick Boseman), from his humble beginnings in a poor family to becoming one of the most iconic and revered musicians of all time.

Get On Up is released in the UK on 26th September 2014 and the trailer is embedded below:
