Some of the most honorable people in the world are those who are so loyal to the people of their country that they’re willing to put their own safety into jeopardy. That was certainly the case for the first African-American elite fighter pilot in the U.S. Navy, Jesse Brown, who served during the Korean War. His story of being so determined to defend his country that he was willing to endure institutional bigotry is chronicled in the aerial war epic film, ‘Devotion.’

The drama was directed by J.D. Dillard, the son of the second African-American member of the U.S. Navy’s Blue Angels squadron. Jake Crane and Jonathan Stewart wrote the script for the movie, which is based on the 2015 bestselling book, ‘Devotion: An Epic Story of Heroism, Friendship, and Sacrifice,’ by Adam Makos. The book chronicles the real-life story Brown and his fellow fighter pilot, Tom Hudner. The film stars Jonathan Majors, Glen Powell, Christina Jackson and Thomas Sadoski.

The screen adaptation will be available to stream on Paramount+ and available to buy on Digital beginning this Sunday, January 8. ‘Devotion’s Digital release comes after Sony Pictures Releasing distributed the feature in theaters on November 23.

‘Devotion’ chronicles the growing relationship between Jesse Brown (Majors) and his fellow fighter pilot, Tom Hudner (Powell). Though they’re both gifted pilots, Jesse has more trouble adjusting to the fighter plane the Navy introduced in 1950, the Vought F4U Corsair, whose bulky engine blocked visibility.

Also struggling to be away from his wife, Daisy (Jackson), and their young daughter, as well as racism from his otherwise all white team of fighter pilots, Jesse finds comfort in his growing friendship with Tom. Their shared heroic sacrifices and enduring friendship ultimately made them the Navy’s most celebrated wingmen.
