Michael (2026) - Leaks, spoilers and rumours thread.

[Fuzball]

before i knew i had to sign a contract

Would you say there will an updated soundtrack album?

Does it end with the song that's really long and he jumps around a lot in performances? Or does everyone get dusted away in the air because Thanos got all the jewels?

And is Branca a big, relevant character? Like, do we see him a lot?

Very interesting to read such contrasting opinions on the film from @michaeljackson.nl and @IMWhizzle . Perhaps it’s an indication of what to expect going forward, very mixed response from both critics and fans

My expectations are not all that high tbh so hoping to have a good time when I see it.

Clickbait title but generally nice interview (moved this here, there's no spoilers really but think it fits here better).

no i don’t think so

I'm bursting with curiosity when I see this thread, but I'm trying not to read too much here. Once I've seen the film, I'll check back here to see if I've missed anything.

Man I wanna talk so much but that NDA gonna hunt me down

All I’m gonna say is that the Thriller sequence was peak and Don’t stop sequence was different than expected but in a good way

They did a great job

Thank you for your overall reaction of the movie even if you can't say that much

Yeah, you don’t want to be spoiled, even though it’s a 2 hour film there were loads of easter eggs and a few hints that only fans will get. They cramped loads of stuff in a 2 hour movie. Some things that were skipped and not talked about, but you could’ve expected that. I think it’s insane how much they fit in 2 hours

When in the timeline is the switch from the young actor to Jaafar?

I’ve thought about that too!

I wonder if it’s the moment where we see young Michael looking out the window and then adult Michael we see also doing the same

very early and I think you can already pinpoint when it happens. Juliano’s part gave me chills tho, he did so well.

How did Miles Teller´s portrayal of John Branca go down? Considering it was a high budget addon to hire that actor its especially interesting

 

[ChanceToDance]

@michaeljackson.nl @IMWhizzle what would be your final ratings for the movie?

 

[Blues_Away2023]

I keep seeing stuff online dismissing the positive reactions to the movie and things like …the influencers have seen the movie , the critics haven’t.

Almost feels like they are waiting to pounce and destroy the film

no idea, but i had great time. Definitely want to watch it again. I’m so bad at ranking and rating stuff

it was so funny everytime a new character came on everybody cheered and then John Branca came in the scene you all know: dead silence
I laughed about that

 

[Annita]

So the role that Branca took on in the film was disproportionate or not?

Well, it's mostly influencers (people who are paid to say they love everything) and fans that were at the premiere so they really aren't the most objective critics there.
Having opinions from people who are not necessarily fans would be more interesting

 

[SmoothGangsta]

I don't expect any positive reviews from mainstream outlets etc.

 

[michaeljackson.nl]

there is something in the teasers that isn’t in the movie

 

[AlwaysThere]

TikTok - Make Your Day

I know this was mentioned by TJ and written off as possibly a misspeak, but this TikTok video showing part of the credits confirms a Mike Myers cameo!

With the way they have treated Michael in the past, I really doubt they would be objective but as we say, let's wait and see.

 

[Fuzball]

man, you’re gonna be surprised what songs you’re gonna hear
I never expected them, but they fit!

Just seen a clip of the credits. Smile seems to be one of the unexpected songs. Is it the same recording from the History album or an earlier cut from 1970s or 80s?

I didn’t want to say anything about it, because it was a beautiful moment in the movie and a pleasant surprise, so I’d like to keep it a surprise for you guys too.

Is it MJ’s version or a different version
