Michael Biopic Sequel to Tackle Jackson Abuse Allegations
Published 11 hours ago
Description
Actor Jaafar Jackson recently revealed that a sequel to the Michael biopic is currently in development at Lionsgate, with filming expected to begin by early 2027. While the initial film chronicled the singer's early rise to fame ending in 1987, the upcoming installment will address the controversial child abuse allegations that surfaced in the following decade. Jackson emphasizes that the production aims to present these events from his uncle's personal perspective to counter narratives driven by outside agendas. He hopes to highlight the late artist’s resilience and kindness despite the legal and personal turmoil he faced in his later years. This project seeks to provide a voice for the pop star that his family believes has been largely ignored or misrepresented by others.
