Mr.Boseman, he didn't disappoint in this role! Like Jamie Fox with the Ray Charles story! You get lost in this story line! Forgetting you are watching Mr. Boseman! One hell of a performance. And we miss both Legends!
I love this movie. He was and is GREAT. His passing still hurts daily. I find myself crying at times. But I know he is in a better place. He is not in anymore pain. You are so missed. 🙏
Chadwick was something special! He was touched "by an angel"! His light spread around the world! I guess Hollywood or the Oscar's will recognize him posthumously, but they missed a chance to give this man an Oscar while he was living. He played the hell of this role! RIP Chadwick! We love and miss you!
I remember seeing James Brown in concert when I was a Little girl and Chadwick Boseman embodied Jame Brown in this movie. Everything I saw in James Brown, Chadwick Boseman embodied it. When I watched this movie it was as if I was that little girl watching James Brown in Concert. R.I.P. James Brown & Chadwick Boseman!! Well done!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯
To be diagnosed with the most difficult disease you can’t even tell he brung every strength of energy and life into this character in this movie wow🕊🕊💛
I know, if we can go to God and ask him to bring back a celebrity it would be this guy. Not that everyone wasn't loved and appreciated but this guy there is something about him.
When I closed my eyes while listening perform, it was surreal. Indeed his performance was prestine on ALL levels! Chadwick Boseman was beyond amazing, his dedication, commitment and talent was impeccable, A true genius!!! Oh, how it pains my soul to know he's on a different realm, he touched and changed many generations! Our beloved Chadwick, we miss and love you beyond words. Thank you for your humility, poise, generosity, loving care for the two young children terminal patients who were patiently waiting for Black Pathers release, how you maintained in touch with them throughout production, and how deeply it affected when you learned of their passing, while you silently were fighting for your life! What a humble selfless kindred soul he had. He didn't like the spotlight, and always embraced his cast members in everything. What a great loss! Prayers and condolences to his beautiful wife and family. Rest In Peace! 🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏
Mr. Chadwick Boseman: A consummate artist actually being praised during a time when he was alive to see and hear it. "Give me flowers yet while I live". Rest in power Mr. Boseman and thank you for caring enough to make your tranformation of Mr. James Brown-funky!
Chadwick Boseman was such an incredible talent, so was Nelsan Ellis. They both did well in this movie. They were so young with such talent. May they both RIP.
This Man did such a great job as James ! You believe He was James ! Wow. Chad was just Gifted . He came and did what. He had to do in a short time. And He left his mark ! This was a Great Actor.
Chadwick we miss you. You were on loan from heaven and we should look at each other with the love you embodied. Rest in Paradise and Power Forevermore.
Chadwick was such a talented & beautiful soul who I really thought it was James Brown. I know only God knows and I know Chadwick sits in Gods heavens watching & waiting for us to join him. God rest Mr. Brown & Chadwick.
Every person, actor, actress, the crew,the choreographer,,, that participated in this movie was "excellent" a very powerful movie of the **Godfather of Soul** and don't even mention the music, ,it took me back to the greatest times of my life, ,the 60s gee wiz I loved.💞 this movie way,,, before Chadwick Bozeman passed away,,see I'm a moviegoer and me and my daughter and grandson saw this movie when it first premiered 2014,,so I was already familiar with it ,,,Chadwick Bozeman just brought James Brown back alive on stage again. ... And wow now Chadwick Bozeman is gone what a horrible lost,,like one of James Brown songs,,"I lost Someone "a million too one a love one ,,yea we all lost someone now he and the real James Brown are in Heaven talking about their beautiful life on earth was if only.😲 for 1 day,, RIP Chadwick and James, ,you'll never ever be forgotten especially by me.
Like Jamie Fox with Ray Charles! Chadwick Boseman owned the part of James Brown! Blew my mind. The way he looked into the camera. Made you feel like the 3rd person going for the ride! Man! I would laugh so hard. You forget it was Chadwick! This dude is crazy funny! And serious. Man you didn't want to piss him off! When it came to his music...... It was a big deal to him! A escape to infinity and beyond!
As a kid, I practically lived at the Apollo Theatre in New York. I’ve seen James Brown perform live many times. Chadwick Boseman did a fabulous job...I just wish he had done JAMES BROWN’s Baseball skit with flickering lights simulating slow motion.
Does ANYONE understand this young man's TALENT, HE played Jackie Robinson, Thurgood Marshall, James Brown, Icons in the black World, not too mention BLACK PANTHER, our God sent us a special Gift, Consider us Blessed!!
I met Nelsan Ellis twice and he was so a nice guy. Crazy thing is their birthdays were one day apart. The were born in the same year. Sagitarrius brothers! RIP
No music or person has had a greater influence on me than James Brown. Chadwick nailed it!! I was a young white man learning bass in an all black band in the mid 60s and James Brown is what we played. What a way to cut your bass playing teeth! This movie was just fantastic! I'm nearly 70 now and still playing those tunes!
I get what Jill was saying she misses the character. Chadwick played James so well and we all know it was just a character so he's not real but she misses him.
I find my self not getting enough of him, now that he' is gone, l know I am still in mourning, The death of my people of great talents l love so many thats gone too soon.RIH Chadwick Boesman💕
We fell in love with Chadwiick, his smile , his grace, his kindness, humbleness, his Greatness, his sweet spirit, his perfection on everything! Such a brilliant and talented young man! We wanted More, but God, wanted him Most! God picked an Angel !
I was takened back ,after this great movie, that bosewick had real talent. I was also surprised that Aykroyd really good and Mick products the movie . Awesome!!
Chad done a great job as James Brown. He learned the dance moves quick for the part. It made the movie brought James Brown back threw Chadwick. Hollywood always done black actors wrong knowing they done an outstanding role in movie parts. We may have judge Will Smith and his wife Jada for bringing it to attention years ago. To think about it they was right how black actors and actresses are done wrong in Hollywood
J.B.Spirit transfer into C.B.body to make this movie to be awesome for us to know why we call him Godfather of Soul and the Hardest working Man in showbiz. Thank you Thank you Thank you
This is amazing, my love and congratulations to Chadwick Boseman for such a wonderful performance of James Brown and Chad the wonderful person; You have to congratulate someone of this stature, always.
2020 Horrible year for people of upmost integrity. Kobe Bryant, Chadwick Bozeman, Eddie Van Halen....they all gave it their all. Thank your all for leaving us your legacy for us to honor.
He was a strong man held his posture and continue to be strong knowing he was.sick a man of bravery he was blessed when he was born such a brilliant actor mentor for young kids that have cancer he will be missed he left his legacy kind heart for young to see that.they do anything that want
So sad..what a great talent we've lost...I cried morning and night a year ago when I heard Chadwick Boseman had died..Recently my brother died and I didn't shed one tear...How strange...I've never met Chadwick but fell so deeply when I first saw him as James Brown in "Get On Up"..If y'all believe the movie was good you will be surprised that I saw an almost completely DIFFERENT version of the movie in a select theatre that was even better!!..I've been writing Universal Studios who produced the movie since 2014 to release this greater version of the movie..No response..I even went on Mick Jagger's page who was a director back then to voice myself..still no response..RIP Chadwick and Nelsan Ellis..
I can hardly remember, ever, a movie that one can celebrate the greatness at so many levels of so many talented people; James Brown himself (say hello to my brother up there, King; he’s your biggest fan!), Chadwick Boseman one of the greatest and possible The greatest actor/artist of his generation, Rolling Stones one of the greatest and definitely most iconic and ever lasting rock ‘n roll music group ever, Mick Jagger one of the most visionary artists Europe has ever produced… Real artists being themselves or play other great ones. Little Richard, Viola Davis, Dan Aykroyd… The list is so long for a commoner like myself to even comprehend, just as the vastness of universe for those who study it…
It was sad to see such a talented actor passing. In this interview its mentioned what a powerful performer he is.
* was :(
Mr.Boseman, he didn't disappoint in this role! Like Jamie Fox with the Ray Charles story! You get lost in this story line! Forgetting you are watching Mr. Boseman! One hell of a performance. And we miss both Legends!
Like Little Richard. James Brown was ahead of his time! Trailblazers or God Father's of their Arts and Music! We miss them! I love Black Excellence!
What a blessing he was.
True.
Chadwick Boseman didn’t act in this movie.
He channeled James Brown’s spirit.
RIP King💔
#wakandaFOREVER
Yes!
Yes; I Truly Believe That.......
👍 YES 👍
This year sucks big times...I can't stop watching Chadwick's videos on you tube 😭😭😭
Tenyalinda Tenyalinda me too
He was awesome .Playing James Brown He took my breath away. I thought I was watching James Brown for real.. He madeJames Brown proud
Goosebumps every time ❗️
I love this movie. He was and is GREAT. His passing still hurts daily. I find myself crying at times. But I know he is in a better place. He is not in anymore pain. You are so missed. 🙏
He was ahead of his time. I would love to have him back,not just as BLACK Panther but moreso as, Chadwick!
Breaks my heart. He's one of the few actors that seems so authentic. What a loss.
I literally watched this movie over and over......and over. His portrayal of James Brown continues to blow my mind and was soooooo Oscar worthy!!!!
same!!
Chadwick was something special! He was touched "by an angel"! His light spread around the world! I guess Hollywood or the Oscar's will recognize him posthumously, but they missed a chance to give this man an Oscar while he was living. He played the hell of this role! RIP Chadwick! We love and miss you!
Agree 💯
He should've gotten Oscars for this role and Black Panther.
100!
I remember seeing James Brown in concert when I was a Little girl and Chadwick Boseman embodied Jame Brown in this movie. Everything I saw in James Brown, Chadwick Boseman embodied it. When I watched this movie it was as if I was that little girl watching James Brown in Concert. R.I.P. James Brown & Chadwick Boseman!! Well done!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯
He TRULY was something SPECIAL. Still in disbelief. RIP Chadwick Boseman and Nelsan Ellis❤
To be diagnosed with the most difficult disease you can’t even tell he brung every strength of energy and life into this character in this movie wow🕊🕊💛
Chadwick left us too soon. Wish he were here a lot longer. Rest easy King.
Ugh, I wish we could have him back 💕💕💕💕💕😭😭😭😭
😭😭😭
BreezyGirl 313 I know😔.
😢😢😢😢😢me too
I know, if we can go to God and ask him to bring back a celebrity it would be this guy. Not that everyone wasn't loved and appreciated but this guy there is something about him.
We also lost Nylsan Ellis (Bobby Byrd)...another young talented man.
So sad to have lost such great talent! We will miss Chadwick very much!
It’s chilling to hear Jill Scott talk about how she felt like she was mourning him. 😳😳😳
Girl! That took me out!
I know right! Jill Scott impresses me as being a very intuitive person, having a type of soul awareness. RIP Chadwick.
I think she was talking about mourning James and not Chadwick
@@jawayne224 She was. It just hits kinda deeply in an erie kind of way.
I, as a professionally trained Method actor, know 'exactly' what she is talking about. It is 'other' level, and so profound, when you experience it!
When I closed my eyes while listening perform, it was surreal. Indeed his performance was prestine on ALL levels! Chadwick Boseman was beyond amazing, his dedication, commitment and talent was impeccable, A true genius!!! Oh, how it pains my soul to know he's on a different realm, he touched and changed many generations! Our beloved Chadwick, we miss and love you beyond words.

Chadwick was phenomenal in Get on up,He Embodied the role so well,I can watch Get on Up everyday...Fly high 🌥🌥⛅
when you are good, you are good Chadwick you may be gone but you will never be forgotten 💔💔💔R.I.P king
True talent. So Blessed. Brother James was proud of him...well done. Now you two meet again....
Chadwick Boseman was such an incredible talent, so was Nelsan Ellis. They both did well in this movie. They were so young with such talent. May they both RIP.
When you watch James Brown dancing you can see where Prince got his inspiration for his own dance moves.
And Michael Jackson too.
Known.
This Man did such a great job as James !
You believe He was James ! Wow.
Chad was just Gifted .
He came and did what.
He had to do in a short time. And He left his mark ! This was a Great
Actor.
One of my best movies. We dug the hell out James coming up. Baddest Brother walking! Chad tore it up!
Chadwick we miss you. You were on loan from heaven and we should look at each other with the love you embodied. Rest in Paradise and Power Forevermore.
He was truly a God send and he understood his purpose in the earth and he fulfilled it❤❤😥
He definitely deserves an Oscar award.
Truly awesome truly missed and always will be remembered. Phenomenal talent!! ❤❤❤❤
Chadwick was such a talented & beautiful soul who I really thought it was James Brown. I know only God knows and I know Chadwick sits in Gods heavens watching & waiting for us to join him. God rest Mr. Brown & Chadwick.
Chadwick was such an amazing actor & human being. God bless. I'm sure he & James have met in heaven
What an amazing, and extraordinary gift he had has an actor. Surely you will be missed.

Seems like everyone knows him best for Black Panther, but as for me I was introduced to Mr. Boseman as James Brown. R.I.P. THE FUNK DONT STOP!
He DEFINITELY SHOULD have WON an OSCAR for his AMAZING PERFORMANCE.
As a kid, I practically lived at the Apollo Theatre in New York. I’ve seen James Brown perform live many times. Chadwick Boseman did a fabulous job...I just wish he had done JAMES BROWN’s Baseball skit with flickering lights simulating slow motion.
He embodied the spirit and charisma of James Brown in this movie.
@6:53 this guy was another good actor who died way too young.
Does ANYONE understand this young man's TALENT, HE played Jackie Robinson, Thurgood Marshall, James Brown, Icons in the black World, not too mention BLACK PANTHER, our God sent us a special Gift, Consider us Blessed!!
This guy was great, very talented, humble, God picked an Angel , What can we say!
RIP NELSAN ELLIS AND CHADWICK BOSEMAN
How Chadwick did not win an Oscar let alone be nominated is beyond me!
He was a blessing to so many people..and inspiring
So much talent. God bless Chadwick Boseman! ❤🙏
He Brought Mr. James Brown Back 😍 To Life...
An amazing performance 👏👏👏
RIP C.B
Just beautiful
Sadly Chadwick and Nelsan Ellis ....the guy that played Bobby Byrd are gone way too soon
Thank You for Sharing This Information; I wasn’t Aware.......So Sad
Had the same thought.
I met Nelsan Ellis twice and he was so a nice guy. Crazy thing is their birthdays were one day apart. The were born in the same year. Sagitarrius brothers! RIP
@@jhesskeeptraveling now that just gave me chills
@@jawayne224 ...Some times coincidence and reality!
Get caught up in each other's space.
This is when I said that guy is a real deal playing James ooh man what is no joke heaven just keep getting better
He was a "true natural" actor.
RIP Chadwick and James. I’m sure you fellas are having a soulful time up there in heaven
All this work while undergoing chemotherapy? ???? Respect
Much respect,I know two people who one had colon cancer and another who had chemotherapy, yall this man was strong
He wasn't yet, that was around 2013 and 2014 (he was diagnosed in 2016)
We lost an iconic & gifted actor & human being.😣😔😔 Horribly sad his passing.
Life is so unfair, but God always takes his angels 👼🏾........R.I.P. Chadwick!!!!!
No music or person has had a greater influence on me than James Brown. Chadwick nailed it!! I was a young white man learning bass in an all black band in the mid 60s and James Brown is what we played. What a way to cut your bass playing teeth! This movie was just fantastic! I'm nearly 70 now and still playing those tunes!
One of my FAVORITE movies
This man was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!! Gone way too soon!! RIP Chadwick.
I get what Jill was saying she misses the character. Chadwick played James so well and we all know it was just a character so he's not real but she misses him.
He did an awesome job! Rest in heavenly paradise Chadwick. Mr. Dynamic😊😊😊😊
I find my self not getting enough of him, now that he' is gone, l know I am still in mourning, The death of my people of great talents l love so many thats gone too soon.RIH Chadwick Boesman💕
I love this movie. Amazing job Chad! Rest in paradise!!
He should have won the Oscar for Best Actor in 2015!
How did he do it? All of this talent and he had cancer? What an incredible, talented human being! REST IN POWER!
Super talented and Gifted
Thanks for posting.
Such a gift ....such a talented Man. Thank You Chadwick...Rest In Peace

Chad makes every role feel live and real. His passion to bring more Black Our Truth into light is spiritual. He is still with us.
Such Brilliance !
We fell in love with Chadwiick, his smile , his grace, his kindness, humbleness, his Greatness, his sweet spirit, his perfection on everything! Such a brilliant and talented young man! We wanted More, but God, wanted him Most! God picked an Angel !
Chard was very gifted.
Chadwick Boseman became James Brown. I loved this movie 💞💕💕
The only other person could do that was Prince Rogers Nelson. Now we get to add Chadwick Boseman. That makes 3hree 💜💜
That’s what I thought when Olivia said no one else could do a split like James. Prince learned from him and became a master at them!
I was takened back ,after this great movie, that bosewick had real talent. I was also surprised that Aykroyd really good and Mick products the movie . Awesome!!
I still havent seen the movie,its been rough for me but I will one day God's will
For a god to take such a good man away at his prime tells me there is no good or wise god .... rest in peace Chadwick Boseman.
I love this guy!!
A great performer in many films sadly missed
This was very interesting, Rest Your Soul, welll Done
RIP still can't believe he's gone rip😇
Merhn... Chadwick got talent and he's a whole mood
RIP to both Nelsan and Chadwick
A Gift from God he was!🕊
Damn....Nelsan Ellis(Bobby Byrd) passed also. Rip Chadwick Boseman & Nelsan Ellis🙏🏾🙏🏾
