If you're going to name your movie simply Michael it should be some kind of buddy comedy where Michael Jackson teaches Michael Jordan how to sing and Jordan teaches Jackson how to ball.

And at some point Jordan says his trademark "Fuck them kids." and Jackson takes it the wrong way and well the whole thing gets really dark.

Admittedly it's not a biopic but if you want a slow drama about a toilet cleaner in Tokyo, Perfect Days is a good watch.

the trailer's song choice has me on board already... Lou Reed produced by David Bowie with Mick Ronson on piano, basically I think of that album as a Spiders from Mars spinoff

Wait, this actor portraying Michael is Michael's own nephew?

Thats is great actually, because is really looks like.

 

[BloodFree]

Will this be in the movie ?

Is Martin Bashir going to be in this?

Pop culture icon mashups like this are probably gonna be a thing at some point, assuming the estates could ever cooperate. Sadly no one could probably afford to make a film about the back-stage hijinks around making the "We are the World" video, for example, because getting permission for all those singers would cost $$$$$$$.

Is this for kids only?

The film has got such a great soundtrack. I've found myself listening to a playlist of it a few times since watching it.
