"Michael", a biopic about Michael Jackson, is officially happening.

There is no way it has been deleted. Peter Safran who became co-ceo of DC Studios after it has said that he has seen it.

For all intents and purposes, it has been. I'm pretty certain it will be leaked or shown down the line (like the Schumacher cut is out there), but as far as we are concerned it's "gone" and didn't get a theatrical release as it should have.

Can someone catch me up on what's been going on here? Because it seems there have been many different discussions and its hard to keep track, especially looking at this track for one of the first times.

Elvis biopic movie also had soundtrack album but it would be pointless to release another Mj best of album without new songs

Not deleted but it's never coming out.

That's not from the biopic - the actors are clearly different. Nobody seems to know that clip's origins, but it's definitely not the biopic.

Will Emmanuel Lewis be in the biopic, or is the estate too afraid to do so?

I don't think so as his role was not all that important and visible in Michael's life. Macualy would make more sense.

Also?

The friendship with Emmanuel Lewis would show much more about who Michael really was than the appearance of Mick Jagger, who also has no great artistic significance for the biopic.

Showing how Emmanuel Lewis's family took him in and cared for him after he was burned and went to a hotel because he didn't want to go home would actually explain a lot regarding why Michael was always seeking surrogate families.
