#GETONUP "Can't Stop the Funk" Launch

SUPER HEAVY ON THE FUNK! DANCE WITH JAMES BROWN!

On behalf of Universal Pictures, we are proud to announce the launch of our interactive celebration of the Godfather of Soul: www.cantstopthefunk.com. To flame fan passion for James Brown leading up to the release of GET ON UP, this UGC-fueled treat invites fans to join in an endless high-energy performance. As an endless backbeat of “Sex Machine” plays, a video player--framed in what appears to be the sleeve of a James Brown album cover--anchors this “endless performance” site experience.



Fan videos will be showcased alongside classic dance clips of James Brown; clips of Chadwick Boseman, who portrays Brown in GET ON UP; and original videos from DanceOn channel partners. The funktastic videos can also be shared with friends on Tumblr, Facebook and Twitter.
