Chadwick Boseman did all his own dancing.
Dan Aykroyd and the real James Brown appeared together in The Blues Brothers (1980), Doctor Detroit (1983), the Super Bowl XXXI (1997) halftime show, and Blues Brothers 2000 (1998).
Chadwick Boseman trained for 2 months to learn how to sing and dance properly.
When James and The Flames go onstage to perform their rendition of Caldonia, the music used was an actual recording of the real James Brown's rendition. The original includes a horn section, which was removed because the Flames didn't yet have a horn section in the film.
Spike Lee was lined up to direct, but music contractual issues held up the production, and he had to leave to honor other commitments. Chadwick Boseman would later work with Spike Lee in Da 5 Bloods (2020), which unfortunately would be Boseman's last film to be released in his lifetime.
"Aunt Honey: You special. You mama's a no account fool, your daddy too, but you ain't going to be. You gonna be okay. One day, everybody going to know your name."
"James Brown: What's wrong, Maceo? Maceo Parker: We can't play that like you told us. It doesn't work musically. James Brown: Does it sound good? Maceo Parker: Yeah James Brown: Does it feel good? Maceo Parker: Yeah James Brown: If it sound good and it feel good, then it's musical."
