Northrup was forced to work on plantations in Louisiana until a chance meeting with an abolitionist, played by Brad Pitt, led to his release and freedom.
In this exclusive Behind the Scenes Skype interview with OTMM’s Marc Silverstein, actor, producer and writer Rob Steinberg, who plays shopkeeper Cephas Parker in the film, talks about what it was like on set with Pitt, Michael Fassbender, Paul Giamatti and the rest of the cast.
“I couldn’t be happier or more proud to be associated with this film,” says Steinberg. ” Now, for those of you who haven’t seen it or heard that its “hard to watch”, you need to see it. It will move you. It will change you.”
He also discusses his career from preparing for a major film role like this, to his early days on the set of Die Hard 2.
