"So far we know that they have already filmed some Victory Tour performances and obviously they have already recorded "Man in The Mirror" on the Dangerous Tour.

It is said that they also filmed "Billie Jean" at Motown 25."

"It is said ..." ???? Hm.

I wonder if they show a clip at Cinemacon this week, if they'll release it soon?

I'd imagine reporters will talk about it if they saw a clip from the film at least

I don't know whether to laugh at the person's super excited face or at MJ looking like he's checking his watch during Jackie's solo.

that means Jaafar is on the biopic soundtrack

 

[ChanceToDance]

that means Jaafar is on the biopic soundtrack
Maybe we get Beautiful Girl from Jaafar

Could've been something recorded for the movie itself, Michael Prince did work on the TII film as well.

 

[NetflexKing]

that means Jaafar is on the biopic soundtrack

It could easily be recordings for scenes which require singing. It doesn't have to be for the soundtrack.

Leaked scene from the Biopic:

John Branca (played by Miles Teller) playing on stage at the Bad Tour, Wembley 1988, after MJ (Played by Jaafar Jackson) and Jonathan Sugar foot Moffet were unable to perform.

I hadn't considered that!

 

[Billie Jean 78]

I hadn't considered that!

Wasn´t there a scene in his Private movies where she came to NL in a helicopter?
I mean what else could it be?
Paparazzi - unlikely
Sneddon and his pals - hmm, maybe, but I cannot remember if they really came in a helicopter
Any of his other VIP friends who wanted to avoid a long ride in a car (Marlon Brandon)?
Oprah coming for the interview?

Maybe.

Iirc, there were lots of helicopters up above full of photographers when she got married there.

"The panel extends with Michael, the Michael Jackson movie, that Antoine Fuqua will direct. Bohemian Rhapsody producer Graham King introduces a first look, even though the movie remains in production. (Fuqua is on the set and couldn't be here.)"

Praying we get a sneak peak at footage

“King says that Michael will dig into Jackson's life on stage and off, and will not avoid the more suspect aspects of the musician's life. He admits that it's a tremendous amount of material to cover, talking about Jackson's life and career. But he's confident in their approach.”

Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm not familiar with biopics, but 30 seems to be a lot, doesn't it? I am not complaining though, on the contrary...

I don't watch biopics either but I'll bet a lot of songs will be on in the background of a scene. Plus some will just be fragments. No way will they be using 30 complete songs. I'm pretty sure it doesn't work like that. I guess they'll pick a few to highlight, they might be used in full.

 

[michaeljackson.nl]

“Michael looks solid. Classic biopic formula, but the actors they found to play Jackson fit the bill, and Jackson has thousands of hits. Should be a massive movie for next year.

And that's it for Lionsgate, so thank you for following along with the live blog!”

 

[zinniabooklover]

The presentation is over!

It imagine it will be snippets or shorter versions of the songs throughout.

Apparently they just showed some footage to the backdrop of man in the mirror ahhhh
