Michael Jackson is arguably the most influential artist on pop culture with massive hits like “Billie Jean,” “Beat It,” “Man In the Mirror,” and “Thriller”—and that’s just from his solo career. Before going solo, he first captured the hearts of the world as the youngest member of the Jackson 5. He always had the voice and the moves to back it up.
Jackson sadly passed away in 2009, but his influence on music and dance remains as powerful as ever. The Michael Jackson biopic, Michael, starring Jaafar Jackson is set for release on April 24, 2026. The official trailer has been released and has broken the record for most viewed music biopic of all time with over 116 million views within its first 24 hours.
Michael will chronicle the life and legacy of Jackson, tracing his journey from his beginning in the Jackson 5 to his rise as the King of Pop. Check out the trailer below:
