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

And then radio silence for 3 months? That's not how marketing campaigns work. :ROFLMAO:
My guess is that we get the teaser trailer late November/early December, official trailer in February and final trailer in late March.
That's a PR campaign I'd be happy to pay for! :D
 
Yes. Picture Edit is one thing. Then VFX. Color Grade. Sound Editing. Composing. Sound Mmixing and a billion other steps. I’m surprised at the April release date to be honest, seems ambitious.
The Bob Dylan biopic had a standard length shoot, short post-production since it's probably mostly just talking heads, and the trailer has been out for a while. The Robbie Williams Better Man film had a longer shoot, really long post-production bc of complicated CGI. Michael's film probably sits somewhere between those two so the post-production seems about right, I'd say.

As long as they don't CGI Jafaar in to an ape 😂 That Robbie movie looks like it might be a good one 😁
 
Got to admit , for a biopic it looks pretty original and different from a bog standard biopic by numbers.

It’s still nuts though but so is Robbie Williams
Completely mental but I get it, lol. It makes sense that he feels he's just a circus animal performing tricks. I mean, I'm not sure I could be bothered to watch it. I'd rather just watch footage from Knebworth.

Making a Black man into a monkey/ape would not go down very well if you know the history of early Hollywood or just the United States in general. That's why in the Black Panther movie, the name Man-Ape (from the comic books) is not used, but M'Baku instead

I was too depressed to make this point. Thank you.

I was making a comparison between the Robbie biopic and the Michael biopic. But thanks for taking my comment completely out of context.

I was tempted to do the same thing not gonna lie. There was no context until people mentioned that movie. I just figured you were mentioning something I didn't know about.

You're right and I apologise if my off the cuff remark upset anybody. Out of context my post did look a little off.

Anyway, with current CGI technology (Harrison Ford and Tom Hanks made to look younger etc. in movies) Is it possible that they'll use CGI to make Jafaar look more "MJ"? Is there a precedent for this in any other biopic/film?

There was some CGI in the Beatles film "Yesterday" with the John Lennon section at the end.

I feel like it's likely they will but tastefully, to resemble MJ in the 90s and later. Makeup can do a lot but, not as much as what the vitiligo treatments, and cosmetic surgeries did.

I have no idea what this means, lol. Yesterday it was something to do with Thriller, today it's this. :unsure:

"The Michael Jackson biopic has been registered on the copyright portal.Until recently there were only two copyright registrations for the biopic, now there are 8."

"It should be noted that some of them had already been registered for some time, but did not appear on the portal."
