As we watch much of our nation literally burn, once again, many movies dealing with the experience of being a Black American are finding their way to the forefront. Whether it’s Spike Lee’s epic return to Vietnam, in Da 5 Bloods, or the crackling dialogue of Blindspotting or the surreal horror of Get Out, many Americans are turning to movies to contextualize what they are watching in reality on the nightly news.

Cody ChesnuTT Delivers ‘Partings Ways’ For A ‘Soul’ Sneak Peek

0
In Disney and Pixar’s “Soul,” Joe Gardner (voice of Jamie Foxx) is a middle-school band teacher whose true passion is playing jazz. When he gets lost in his music, he goes into "the zone,” an immersive state that causes the rest of the world to literally melt away. Globally renowned musician Jon Batiste will be writing original jazz music for the film, and Oscar®-winners Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross (“The Social Network”), from Nine Inch Nails, will compose an original score that will drift between the real and soul worlds. “Soul” opens in U.S. theaters on November 20, 2020. © 2020 Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved.

Soul director Pete Docter, co-director and screenwriter Kemp Powers and producer Dana Murray teamed up with American anthropologist Dr. Johnnetta Cole and jazz pianist Jon Batiste to deliver a sneak peek of the film during a virtual panel titled “Finding Soul.” The video features “Parting Ways,” a song penned, produced and performed by multi-talented musician Cody ChesnuTT. Check out the virtual panel as well as a clip from Soul in our post!
