Alongside Jaafar Jackson, “Michael” also stars Miles Teller as Jackson’s attorney and adviser John Branca, Colman Domingo as his father Joe Jackson, Nia Long as his mother Katherine Jackson, Jessica Sula as his sister LaToya Jackson, Larenz Tate as Motown Records founder Berry Gordy, Laura Harrier as pioneering music executive Suzanne de Passe and Kat Graham as Diana Ross.

The biopic is set to be released in theaters on April 24, 2026, moving from its original Oct. 3, 2025 date. Although “Michael” wrapped production in May 2024, it underwent reshoots and there were reports about it being split into two parts — though from the trailer, it appears to be just one film.

His nephew may be the spitting image of early Michael, definitely interested in seeing this.

The wife and I will go see this. We were planning on seeing him on his last tour, but obviously that never happened. Also would have been cool to see Orianthe.

I'm assuming they're going to do a quick speedrun past the Jackson 5 days? I feel like Michael's career was too long and full to do it justice in a single movie.

They are using a family member in the cast? Red flag.

Not particularly a fan of biopics that go through sanitization.

I'm sure they will be completely honest about his dalliances with little boys.

Not to mention the rewrites and pushing back the release.

Gonna be a whitewash of his life. Ironic?

I think they made the pre-surgery nose just a bit too big.
