The Teaser for the Michael Jackson Biopic Has Arrived

Here it is. The teaser for Michael, starrig Michael Jackson’s own nephew, Jaafar Jackson, in the starring role. The movie had to be reworked this year — and the third act had to be removed for legal reasons — so there won’t be anything about the trial in Michael. If it’s hugely successful, however, there will likely be a sequel that tracks the second half of his life.

This? Pure lies and lionization, so says Michael’s own daughter, Paris. But the music? Irresistible. And Jaafar is a dead ringer for his uncle.

Michael hits theaters on April 24, 2026.
