Fans Believe Michael Jackson’s All-Timer Biopic "will break the box office", as the Movie Gets Slated for a 2025 Release

Published 06/01/2024, 12:32 AM EDT

Out of all the things that 2024 was slated to be, an expectation that it has surpassed is of being an exasperated farrago of cinematic masterpieces. As everyone from Marvel to DC dusted off their cameras and screamed action post the monumental fiasco that was the SAG AFTRA strikes, cinema gained a whole new life. And one among these many anticipated projects was the Michael Jackson biopic, slated to release in 2025.

The production stated back in January and according to a tweet by DiscussingFilm on X, the Michael Jackson biopic has finished filming. While the movie is yet to release any official updates such as a poser or a trailer, the build up has been anything but silent as clips of Michael Jackson's nephew, Jaafar Jackson have been causing waves.

Perhaps it is due to the detectable conviction of Jaafar Jackson even in low-quality clips or his legacy at the theaters that could only now be topped by Taylor Swift, but fans are ready to bet their net worth on the movie being a blockbuster. With how the flick is set to cover both the enigmatic moments on stage of the star and mysterious moments behind the scenes, the blockbuster tag may not be far-fetched.
