Ethan Hawke Dives into Playing History’s Most Controversial Figure in THE GOOD LORD BIRD

John Brown is one of the most controversial figures in American history. Some see him as a savior. Others, the devil himself. His actions at Harper’s Ferry have long been taught as a catalyst to the American Civil War.

Ethan Hawke and co-star Josh Caleb Johnson join BackstageOL’s Dave Morales to dive into the life of abolitionist John Brown as you’ve never seen before.

The Good Lord Bird is based on the award-winning novel by James McBride and is now streaming on Showtime.
