I can’t wait to see this movie. Jesse has been trying to play Marvin Gaye for so long. He looks just like him, he’s an amazing singer, and he’s a fantastic actor who will do a great job with it. Hope everything goes smoothly!

IT IS ABOUT TIME THEY MADE A MOVIE. MARVIN IS LOVED STILL BY SO MANY. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A MOVIE OUT ABOUT HS LIFE STORY. HE WAS STOLEN FROM US, AND WE DESERVE A MOVIE. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FROM BIRTH TO DEATH. IT BETTER NOT MAKE HIM LOOK BAD, HE WAS A MUSICAL GENIOUS AND A PERSON WITH ISSUES LIKE EVERYBODY. THEY BETTER NOT MAKE HIM LOOK BAD. WHO HAS NOT BEEN IN LOVE AND OUT OF LOVE, WHO HAS NOT HAD ISSUES. HE WAS LOVED. STILL. PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN SOON. NO ONE CROONS LIKE MR. GAYE DID. NEVER WILL THERE BE ANOTHER MARVIN. MARTIN FAVORS MARVIN. THATS A PLUS.

Crackpotpress: Actually, you’re basically right about the “bad record” concept but you’re wrong about which project it was. The “bad on purpose” record was Here, My Dear and was done as a slap-in-the-face to Anna. He was with Jan at the time Midnight Love was in works and although estranged, they were not divorcing.

Trust me, Marvin worked harder on the Belgium stuff than he had on any project post What’s Going On.

As an older TMB viewer, I remember when Marvin Gay died my freshman year in high school.

I’m a little disappointed the flik is going to focus on his latter years. Try and find the earlier stuff. Real Deep interesting stuff crescendoing with “Let’s Get It On” and “What’s Going On?”

A funny story.. near the end of his life MG was going through a wretched killer divorce. In fact, his wife was entitled to the majority of the cash from his next single.

He PURPOSELY tried to record the worst single of his career. This turned out to be SEXUAL HEALING, his biggest selling song. Also equally terrible was the video.

Bummer.

One of, if not the greatest singer of all time.
You better not fuck this up.

I’m so happy this movie’s finally getting made. It was announced after the “Rent” film was released in 2005 and people not familiar with Jesse L. Martin’s musical ability quickly signed him on.

He’s absolutely perfect for the role, and I just can’t wait.
