Here's everything that was discussed in the interview today
Joseph stated that the adult actors will play their roles until the "end of their lives", confirming that the film will cover Michael Jackson's entire career.
The actor agreed with the presenter's statement that "Hollywood will not waste a biopic about Michael Jackson", highlighting that the film's marketing and timeline will be like a "wrench", that is, fundamental to facilitate access.
The actor highlighted Graham King's total dedication during filming, following every detail. This corroborates previous information from Michael Jackson's estate about the thorough research carried out by King over the years to reach his own conclusion about Michael Jackson's innocence.
The actor also mentioned that, initially, when he found out about his role, he imagined that the biopic would follow a different path and would not delve into Michael's life, as many pseudo-journalists and haters have claimed. However, throughout the filming, he realized how deep and intimate the narrative explored in the film would be, describing it as "a deep dive into Michael".
The actors who play Michael Jackson's brothers, both as children and adults, rehearsed for two months with Rich and Tone, choreographers hired by Michael Jackson's estate to ensure authenticity for projects like MJ The Musical and the biopic.
As previously announced, the actor confirmed that filming should have been completed earlier. However, new scenes were added to the script, which already had 180 pages in its initial version, resulting in filming being completed in June due to the script being longer than in the initial cut.
Jaafar Jackson began filming his scenes in mid-January, while the actors playing his brothers were still in rehearsal.
Although the actor joked that the film will be 4 hours long, don't take this as a confirmed fact. He was joking at the time about his enthusiasm and stated in his own words that he "doesn't know what the final cut will be like."
