According to an entertainment portal, the movie “Michael” may need reshoots. The biographical film tells the story of the legacy of the King of Pop Michael Jackson.
With a planned release for April 2025, the “Michael” film has been delayed to October, according to a report from Puck.
The reason for the reshoots would be the inclusion of an investigation into the abuse allegations made against the artist by Jordan Chandler.
According to the report, a clause in the case prohibits dramatizing the Chandler family, a detail unknown to the film’s team until after the completion of the filming.
Directed by Antoine Fuqua, known for “Training Day,” the film stars Jaafar Jackson, son of Michael Jackson’s older brother, portraying the King of Pop.
Jaafar’s performance has been praised by both the director and the film’s producer, Graham King. “He embodies Michael in a way no other actor could,” he said in a press release in 2024.
The film also stars Miles Teller, Colman Domingo, and Nia Long.
