James Brown Get On Up the movie coming Summer

Brace yourself, James Brown Get On Up the movie coming Summer.

“The collective genius that is James Brown is he was all of those things,” says Tate Taylor, director of Get on Up. Set to open Aug. 1, the movie shows the key moments in Brown’s life behind each of those titles, Taylor says, but it is not a linear, cradle-to-grave biopic.

“It’s all who he is, but we’re going to put it on shuffle instead of play.”

Brown’s epic impact on music is indisputable. From the mid-1950s to the end of the century, he scored classic hits including I Got You (I Feel Good),Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine,Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag and It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World. His dynamic dancing on stage was electrifying, and he performed hundreds of dates each year, earning him another title: The Hardest Working Man in Show Business. Brown died in 2006 at age 73.

Chadwick Boseman is charged with re-creating Brown’s charisma onscreen. Biopics aren’t new to him: He portrayed baseball icon Jackie Robinson in last year’s 42.

For 17 years, various people tried to make the James Brown movie. Taylor, who had directed 2011’s The Help, read the script the day it landed at Imagine Entertainment, and with producers Mick Jagger and Brian Grazer, he took it to Mississippi, his home state, for filming. It concluded a month ago. The film is still being edited.

Taylor and Boseman, who like Brown was born in South Carolina, met with Brown’s family. “All the way there he and I were talking about how as Southerners we have got to protect the story and protect James and make it real,” says Taylor.

To do so, Boseman pored over concert footage and rehearsed five hours a day for about eight weeks, Taylor says.

The story starts when James is six years old, abandoned by his mother and left to live with his Aunt Honey, who runs a brothel. It ends in 1993 with a comeback concert after Brown served prison time for aggravated assault and eluding the police in a wild car chase.

As Brown, Boseman frequently speaks directly to the camera, offering the audience insight into his choices.

 

“I told everybody, ‘Look, James was a control freak, and even though he’s not with us, there’s no way he wouldn’t be a part of his movie,” Taylor says.
“There is a lot of pain in this movie, but as James says, take what’s bad and flip it on its head and make it work for you,” Taylor says. “That’s what he did, and that’s what we can all learn from complicated geniuses.”
