Ray is an American biographical drama film focusing on 30 years in the life of soul musician Ray Charles.[a] The independently produced film was co-produced and directed by Taylor Hackford; it was written by James L. White from a story by Hackford and White. It stars Jamie Foxx as Charles, along with Kerry Washington, Clifton Powell, Harry Lennix, Terrence Howard, Larenz Tate, Richard Schiff, and Regina King in supporting roles. 

Undoubtedly, the story of legendary rhythm-and-blues musician Ray Charles is unique. Born into an impoverished family, Ray Charles had to cope with his brother's death by drowning: a terrible shock that irreparably affected his eyesight, leaving him blind by the age of seven. However, music and sounds were always Ray Charles' refuge - the loss of his mother motivated Ray to fight for his dream. Indeed, Ray's dynamic personality and tremendous talent were an explosive combination. As a result, Ray took 1940s and 1950s America by surprise. As a true pioneer, Ray Charles started a musical revolution with his emotional interpretations, the characteristic suit, and the big smile on his face.

"The extraordinary life story of Ray Charles. A man who fought harder and went farther than anyone thought possible."
