More about Majors and the character he plays

Jonathan Majors plays Nat Love in The Harder They Fall. Majors immediately climbed to fame after releasing his feature film The Last Black Man in San Francisco in 2019. With performances like Atticus Freeman (Lovecraft Country) and He Who Remains (Loki series), the actor has swiftly established himself as one of Hollywood’s most in-demand performers.

The Netflix film revolves around Love’s determination to seek vengeance from Rufus Black, played by Idris Elba. Both of them are outlaws and fugitives and both run gangs. Black gets the nod to leave the jail. On the other hand, Love plans to take revenge against him for his deeds.

Nat Love from the Netflix Original is inspired by a real-life person of the same name. Love was born into slavery in 1854 in Tennessee. He wasn’t known for being a fugitive or a gang leader. Love, however, was quite an experienced writer and gunslinger. At the age of 22, the cowboy released his autobiography called “The Life and Adventures of Nat Love”
