From childhood to his comeback in the 1990s, that is the story we are presented when it comes to James Brown (Chadwick Boseman). A man abandoned by his Mom Susie (Viola Davis) and dad Joe (Lennie James) before he probably even hit puberty. But, thanks to Aunt Honey (Octavia Spencer) he may not have had everything a boy could want, but he at least had a roof, a job, and a meal. Well, until he got himself in trouble and landed in prison. Though, as always in Mr. Brown's life, whenever life decided to toss him away someone came to his rescue. That someone being Mr. Bobby Byrd (Nelsan Ellis) who, alongside Little Richard (Brandon Mychal Smith) seem to be the ones who jump started Mr. Brown's career, and between Mr. Byrd and Ben Bart (Dan Aykroyd) they supported this young man without much and guided him through decades, generations, and various monikers, to be James Brown: The Godfather of Soul.
