RAY is the truly extraordinary and inspiring life story of the late music legend Ray Charles and his triumphant fight to control his own destiny. An awe-inspiring tale of triumph over adversity, it stars Academy Award® Winner Jamie Foxx as the “Genius of Soul” Ray Charles.

Hailed by audiences as one of the most powerful, dramatic and moving stories of the year, RAY received an Academy Award® for Best Sound Mixing, a Golden Globe for Best Musical/Comedy and a BAFTA for Best Sound. Jamie Foxx won Best Actor Awards at the Academy Awards®, the Golden Globes and the BAFTAs.

The culmination of a 15-year effort by director Taylor Hackford (An Officer and a Gentleman, When We Were Kings) to bring the life story of the venerated musician to the screen, RAY stars Jamie Foxx (Collateral) as the impoverished, blind child of the segregated south who not only went on to become one of the world’s most innovative, successful and cherished musical performers of all time, but also broke down artistic and racial barriers along the way. Kerry Washington (Save the Last Dance), Regina King (Miss Congeniality 2, Legally Blond 2), Aunjanue Ellis (Undercover Brother) and Sharon Warren provide stellar support as the strong-willed women in his life.
