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

"Michael

If Elvis could reach $150+ million domestically, the mind staggers to think what a movie about Michael Jackson like Michael will do in October 2025. The King of Pop is coming to the big screen in what’s allegedly a flashy, crowd-pleasing fashion that’ll give audiences plenty of razzle-dazzle and reprises of their favorite songs. Jackson’s appeal as a musician was global. Michael is bound to similarly resonate globally, producing one of the year’s biggest hits in the process."

Predicting the Biggest Movies at the Box Office in 2025

Jackson Estate take note. A complete unknown soundtrack release with Timothee Chalamet is an epic fail. Lip sync is the only way. Don’t be a flop

How do you know. The biopic is not out yet. But I agree I really want Michael`s singing voice not Jaafar`s in the biopic.

The album is on iTunes now. That would be a deal breaker for me, I wouldn’t even watch the film.

Maybe I'm missing the point, how is this related to the biopic?

It isn’t. It’s an example of what a disaster the Michael biopic would be if Jafaar is actually singing the songs instead of Michael Jackson. A complete unknown is a Bob Dylan biopic and the actor Timathee Chalemet is singing the songs instead of Bob Dylan.

Maybe Jaafar sings the songs everybody already knows a million times, or better still, they blend his voice with Michael's. He could sing backing vocals. Idk, just spit balling. I would prefer Michael vocals myself.
 
The recent Elvis Presley biopic had vocals by both the actor and the original Elvis. It did fairly well at the box office. It even had rap songs by acts like Doia Cat. Hip hop was still underground in NYC when Elvis was alive, it hadn't been officially recorded yet. All of the singing on the 3 night New Edition movie on BET were by the actors, a few who already were professional singers. It had high TV ratings.
 
What I want is for people to see Michael who have saw Betterman as everyone I'd talking about this and I thought it was good but not exceptional and definitely not in the same league as Greatest Showman as thats what a lot of people where saying! One thing I will say in the film Michael I really hope Jaafar plays him as a strong but humble person I know he was but no doubt had flaws in prescription drug addition and then also the reasons why he needed it.
Unlike Williams who just got high for the kick and to inflate his already huge EGO!

That would be quite awesome!!!
1. Would they connect such an occasion to his Superbowl performance in 93?
2. Would an MJ tribute performance, something in the style of the MTV Awards tribute with all the lookalikes and even Janet at the end, be something to ponder over?

Maybe expect the imagery in the teaser, otherwise that's a lot.
