MARSHALL is based on an early trial in the career of Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall. It follows the young lawyer (Chadwick Boseman) to conservative Connecticut to defend a black chauffeur (Sterling K. Brown) charged with sexual assault and attempted murder of his white socialite employer (Kate Hudson). Muzzled by a segregationist court, Marshall partners with a courageous young Jewish lawyer, Samuel Friedman (Josh Gad). Together they mount the defense in an environment of racism and Anti-Semitism. The high profile case and the partnership with Friedman served as a template for Marshall's creation of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.
MARSHALL is directed by Reginald Hudlin. The script is written by Michael Koskoff and Jacob Koskoff. Producers are Paula Wagner, Hudlin, and Jonathan Sanger. Director of photography is Newton Thomas Sigel (The Conspirator, Drive). Production designer is Richard Hoover (42, Dead Man Walking). Editor is Tom McArdle (Spotlight, The Visitor). Costume designer is Ruth E. Carter (Selma, Lee Daniels' The Butler).
