Showtime's TheGoodLordBird is set to premiere Aug. 9. Watch the trailer:
"Lunatic," Douglass says of the abolitionist.
The seven-episode series, based on James McBride's National Book Award-winning novel, centers on a young slave known as Onion who becomes a member of Brown's motley family of abolitionist soldiers during Bleeding Kansas — a time when the state was a battleground between pro- and anti-slavery forces — and eventually finds himself participating in the famous 1859 raid on the U.S. Armory at Harpers Ferry.
Mixing humorous and dramatic tones, the series aims to weave a tapestry of antebellum America and the ever-changing racial, religious and gender roles that make up American identity. The Blumhouse Television series also stars David Morse, Steve Zahn, Maya Hawke, Wyatt Russell and Orlando Jones. Ethan Hawke and Mark Richard adapted McBride's novel and executive produce with the author, Blumhouse's Jason Blum, Jeremy Gold and Marci Wiseman, Ryan Hawke, Padraic McKinley, Albert Hughes, Brian Taylor, Marshall Persinger and David Schiff.
