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

I can't make up my mind whether this is meant to be Thriller or Bad era, his hair is longer but he still looks Thriller era to me

Neither - it's the "I'll kick everybody's ***s"-era

So the Motown 25 performance was filmed at the real location.

Ok, I got goosebumps watching the M25 reenactment. The public gave him a standing ovation in 1983... I would not be surprised if that happened at the cinema too.

That TV spot with Joe talking was pretty cool

Motown 25 scene looked phenomenal, Jaafar really is gonna be incredible.

Not the biggest fan of the cutting to the crowd shots though but it’s to be expected I guess and will be more cinematic.

It's a recreation of the M25 broadcast

I disagree... I consider showing the crowd, their reactions, emotions, facial expressions etc. an essential part in showcasing how people perceived Michael's performance. I hope they included very loud crowd scenes.
