Michael Jackson

There was a similar movie to this I saw on Vh1 several years ago. I'd be happy to see this one.

I think Michael Jackson's kid was upset that a white person played their dad.

I haven't seen the advertisement yet. I am also not very good with Actor/Actresses names. So maybe when I see the face I can relate the name as well. I hope it's a good one! Billy Jeans is my favorite one!

Wow! Didn't know this till now!

I saw the preview. I don't think he makes a good Michael. Very disappointed.

I am not sure if Ralph Fiennes is right for the character when there are so many other African American actors who can do the job. I am white, and even I know that there are going to be some issues with a white actor doing black face. Unsure on this one . . .

Correction to myself: Joseph Fiennes. But still wrong when there are other African American actors to do the part.

You do not see people casting black actors to play white actors. Inappropriate . . .

I did want to see it but I'm on the fence for this one.  I'm not happy about Joseph Fiennes playing Michael.  Can't picture who they would have taken but I'm not a Joseph Fiennes fan period.  I think I'll wait till it's free to watch on line or on Netflix.

I did not know they are doing a movie with MJ. Is there any controversy about who is playing the leading role? It would appear maybe not a whole lot of actors are willing to be cast in that role because ...? I had not heard much about it but I am in the dark with topics pertaining to celebrities.

What about the play Hamilton...  there are black actors playing white people.

The 1/2 reenactment show on Urban Legends is/was in the UNITED KINGDOM, therefore the term 'African-American' would not apply to a British Black actor.   But, they could have picked a better fit for the role, true.

There is no movie planned about MJ.      The one half-hour urban legend show was MJ as a character has been pulled... no show.
Funny, this is like that childhood game of telephone where the story changes as it goes on.    lol
