Production

Development

Deadline shared the first reports in November 2019. It was announced to be produced by Graham King, who previously helped with making the Queen biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody.[3] In December 2021, new pictures of the Neverland Ranch emerged from Daily Mail, showing the place "back into a fairytale 'children's paradise'". Many fans have been speculating, that the ranch was restored for the purpose of filming scenes for Michael.[4] Two months later, on February 7, 2022 new reports would pop up, sharing that the title is Michael, Lionsgate is distributing the movie and the co-executors of the Michael Jackson Estate would help co-produce it.[5] On January 18, 2023, it was officially announced the movie would be directed by Antoine Fuqua. It was mentioned filming will start sometime in the same year.[6] Few days later, Jaafar Jackson (Michael's nephew) was announced to take on the lead role.[7]

I’m humbled and honored to bring my Uncle Michael’s story to life. To all the fans all over the world, I’ll see you soon.

Jaafar Jackson through his social media, January 30, 2023[8]

Due to the SAG-AFTRA strike between July 14 and November 9, the production couldn’t continue for a while.

On August 30, Jackson's son, Prince discussed the movie during an episode of the Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson podcast.

I spent a lot of time speaking with Graham about the man that I knew as my father, which is not "the King of Pop", it was not "the Michael Jackson", it was "daddy" to me. And he went and he met with all these other people from my family members, his brothers, my uncles, to people who toured with him, traveled with him, worked for him, and after I read the first draft of the script I called him, 'cause I was crying afterwards, and I told him that he had the most authentic picture of my father. [...] It kind of was like a light bulb for me in a sense, that it put into effect, how the man that I knew was the way he was, because of his whole life story. And so it was nothing like "Billie Jean", Motown 25, doing the Moonwalk for the first time. Everybody knows that story, I was told that story, I've seen the video. But when you have the A to B to C to D and then you get to the end of the movie, it's "that was my dad and that's exactly who he is."

On August 31, Antoine Fuqua revealed his approach to the movie to Entertainment Weekly, stating it would discuss both Michael's positives and flaws.

Just to tell the facts as we know it, about the artist, about the man, about the human being. You know, the good, bad, and the ugly.

–Antoine Fuqua, Entertainment Weekly, "Jaafar Jackson's resemblance to uncle Michael Jackson is 'uncanny' in biopic, director says", August 31, 2023[10]

On October 3 it has been announced that the movie will be distributed internationally by Universal.[11]

Crew and staff were also confirmed, including Robert Richardson (cinematography), Kimberly Hardin and Victoria Thomas (casting), Barbara Ling (production design) and Pasquale Antonelli and Wesley Barker (visual effects).

This opportunity is really important to me because Michael Jackson is the King of Pop, and he is very special in my heart. I’ve been dancing to his songs for five years now. He makes me feel really special and makes me feel good about myself. I love the energy of Michael Jackson.

–Valdi on portraying the King of Pop[17]

Casting & filming

On January 22, the production finally began.[18] Three days later, it was revealed Colman Domingo would play the role of Joe Jackson.

I’m excited to be a part of a film that explores both the complicated soul of the legendary Michael Jackson as well as his impact on music and culture as a global icon. Not only am I fortunate to have a rich, complex and flawed character to portray in Joe Jackson, but I also have a front row seat for Jaafar’s incredible transformation. After seeing him in rehearsal, my mind was blown. There is something divine about the way that Jaafar is channeling his late uncle. His talent and embodiment of Michael’s essence is simply on another level.

–Domingo on playing the role[19]

On January 23, Rich+Tone (reported choreographers for the film) posted an Instagram story, where fans could hear a live version of the intro to "This Place Hotel". The recording suggests that the audio is reused from the Triumph Tour, which is likely for the rest of performances included in the film.

On January 30, Nia Long was announced to portray Michael's mother, Katherine Jackson.[20]

On February 1, Miles Teller was reported to be in talks to play one of Michael Jackson's lawyers in the film, although without specifying who exactly.[21] On February 6, it was confirmed Teller will officially play the role of John Branca.

Miles is a compelling screen presence, whom I’ve admired since watching him in Whiplash. He’s the perfect actor to capture John’s enigmatic persona. From our earliest development conversations, it was clear the emotional connection that John still has to Michael. He graciously allowed us to use him as a character in the film and I’m thrilled that it’s Miles who will portray a relationship that extended over 3 decades, through Michael’s greatest triumphs and most difficult days.

Graham King stated "There are biopics, and then there's Michael Jackson." The co-owner of DiscussingFilm shared exact details of what was shown in the trailer.[57]

[...] The footage covers all of the iconic eras from Jackson’s career, starting with his humble beginnings in The Jackson 5 with the hit song ‘ABC’ playing in the background. We then see a montage that goes from the Jackson 5 performing on television to Michael Jackson in his ‘Thriller’ era. We see Michael’s iconic white socks and black shoes as he’s dancing while singing ‘Bad’. Fans will be excited to know Jaafar Jackson sounds just like his uncle, nailing all the vocal cadences, when delivering dialogue. Michael Jackson is then shown, in the late stages of his career after one of his accidents, with visible pale skin, long curly hair, a black fedora, face mask, and sunglasses getting flanked by security. He’s walking towards a car while a crazy crowd of rabid fans and paparazzi scream to get a photo, with some people even jumping on his car to get a glimpse at him. Cut back to his youth when Michael’s mom tells him, as she’s wiping a tear off his face, “You were never like everyone else.” We then get a close-up of Michael’s fingers snapping, performing ‘Man in the Mirror’ to a massive concert crowd. We also get quick shots of a young Michael signing thriller records with his short hair and iconic red jacket. Then there’s a glimpse of Michael with his face wrapped up in gauze on a stretcher being led into a hospital — assuming this is the big Pepsi commercial incident. The trailer directly confirms that this biopic will address “the controversy” of Jackson’s career. The next image is of Michael on a balcony, which could be the baby dangling incident. There’s a quick shot of Michael sitting at a piano and taking a pill. We see quick glimpses of Nia Long and Coleman Domingo as Michael’s parents in his youth. The trailer ends with a shot of Michael in the white shirt/black pants combo performing in front of hundreds of fans. Jaafar Jackson nails all of the dancing in the footage shown and is seen in various layers of makeup as the film traverses the different stages of Michael’s life.

Trivia

  • Michael will be the first theatrical biopic about Michael Jackson.
  • Michael is the first and only biographical movie about the singer, where the Jackson family members helped with creating it.
  • It is rumored, that over 30 songs are set to appear in the film.
  • Another rumor states, that the film's runtime will be over 3 hours, as the research for it lasted for 7 years and it'd only make sense if the movie delves into every detail of Michael's life.
  • During his lifetime, Jackson was very against having a white actor to portray him in biopics, commercials etc.[92]
