With the multiple Grammy winner being just as controversial as he is beloved, director Antoine Fuqua is explaining how Michael will chronicle the musician's life. Fuqua, well-known for his frequent collaborations with Denzel Washington, revealed he would be working on a Michael Jackson biopic in early 2023, collaborating with Oscar-winning producer Graham King, who previously tackled the music biographical genre with 2018's Bohemian Rhapsody. Jaafar Jackson, the musician's real-life nephew, is set to lead the cast of Michael as Jackson, with filming initially scheduled to kick off later in the year.
