Steve McQueen's historic biography in 2013 "12 Years Rob" appeared when the director came across screenwriter Johnon Ridley at an agency event in 2008. They liked each other's styles and decided to make a movie together, specifically for slavery in the United States in the 19th century. McQueen's longtime partner, Bianca Stigter, was the one who found Solomon Northrup's memoir of 1853 "12 Years Rob". Thanks to the popularity of McQueen's film, everyone knows the tragedy of Northrup's life. Born Free Man in Newsorque, he visited Washington in 1841, where he was drugged and abducted and taken to Louisiana. There, he was enslaved by a greenhouse, and it took him 12 years for him to get help to get rid of. Racism and slavery were worse than you think.

Ridley and McQueen have developed the film together for many years, and until 2011 it was not in 2011 Brad Pitt's production company, Plan B, turn on. Since he was leading Pete's production, more investors were interested. Michael Fassbender, who worked with McQueen on the films "Hunger" and "Shame", joined the cast, as well as Chivel Egianofor (who plays Northrup in the film) and Lupita Njong. Then, several important stars, including Benedict Cumberbatch, Paul Dan, Paul Amamati, Alfrre Wuard and Sarah Paulson, signed. Pete, who is credited with an executive producer, also took a small role. He plays Canadian abolitionist Samuel Bass, who openly expresses his anti-Ropical values ​​of Northroup. As in real life, the bass eventually proves that it is instrumental in the eventual release of Northroup from slavery.
