James Brown Biopic On The Way

"The Help" director Tate Taylor is in talks to direct the untitled James Brown biopic says Deadline.


The story charts a young boy’s rise from extreme poverty and violence to become The Godfather Of Soul, one of the most influential black artists in history whose career spanned six decades.

The search is on to find an actor to play Brown.

Jez Butterworth and John-Henry Butterworth ("Fair Game") wrote the script.

Mick Jagger, Brian Grazer, Victoria Pearman and Erica Huggins will produce.
