The legend of the King of Pop is back in the spotlight. Lionsgate took to social media to drop a sizzling teaser for the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic, simply captioned: "MICHAEL – TRAILER TOMORROW. #MichaelMovie"
The 30-second teaser gives fans a glimpse of Jaafar Jackson, son of Tito Jackson, stepping into MJ’s iconic shoes. From the Jackson 5 days to the unforgettable “Thriller” zombie makeup, the promo promises a journey through Michael’s career-defining moments, highlighting his rise to superstardom and the pressures of family life that shaped him.
Directed by Antoine Fuqua with the Jackson estate closely involved, the film aims to chronicle the highs and lows of MJ’s personal and professional life. Lionsgate has scheduled the theatrical release for April 24, 2026, setting the stage for one of the year’s most anticipated music biopics.
Early reactions on social media have been a mix of thrill and curiosity, with fans praising Jaafar Jackson’s uncanny resemblance to his uncle and applauding the casting choice. At the same time, discussions have sparked around how the film will address controversial aspects of Michael’s life, including abuse allegations, with critics noting that the biopic may opt for a more sanitized narrative, based on reports from 2025.
With the trailer dropping February 3, anticipation is at an all-time high as fans worldwide wait to see how the King of Pop’s story will unfold on the big screen — from moonwalks to music, fame, and family drama.
