The James Brown biopic wil hit the stage on Blu-ray later this year. You can pre-order the disc now.
In an early announcement to retailers, Universal is preparing 'Get on Up - The James Brown Story' for Blu-ray in 2014.
In his follow-up to the four-time Academy Award-nominated blockbuster 'The Help,' Tate Taylor directs '42's Chadwick Boseman as James Brown in 'Get On Up.' Based on the incredible life story of the Godfather of Soul, the film will give a fearless look inside the music, moves, and moods of Brown, taking audiences on the journey from his impoverished childhood to his evolution into one of the most influential figures of the 20th century. Boseman is joined in the drama by Nelsan Ellis, Dan Aykroyd, Viola Davis, Craig Robinson, Octavia Spencer, Lennie James, Tika Sumpter and Jill Scott.
Specs and supplements have not been announced yet, but suggested list price for the Blu-ray/DVD/Digital HD combo pack is $34.98.
