The Michael Jackson biopic is happening.
The first films of my career were music videos, and I still feel that combining film and music are a deep part of who I am. For me, there is no artist with the power, the charisma, and the sheer musical genius of Michael Jackson. I was influenced to make music videos by watching his work – the first Black artist to play in heavy rotation on MTV. His music and those images are part of my worldview, and the chance to tell his story on the screen alongside his music was irresistible.
There’s no question Michael Jackson lived a life worthy of his own movie. The question is how much of Jackson’s life will actually make it to the screen. That, along with finding someone capable of portraying Michael Jackson across his life, will be two rather enormous challenges.These movies weren’t hits. They’re not considered ’90s classics. But more people should watch them.
