While it was initially slated for April 18, 2025, and then October 3, 2025, it is now expected to be released sometime in <strong>2026<\/strong>, possibly after April 1st, 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"3:1-3:35\">This delay is due to a few factors:<\/p>\n<ul data-sourcepos=\"5:1-7:0\">\n<li data-sourcepos=\"5:1-5:303\"><strong>Reshoots and script revisions:<\/strong> Reports indicate that extensive reshoots are necessary, partly due to legal concerns regarding a clause in a prior settlement related to one of Michael Jackson&#8217;s accusers. The initial script reportedly included content that was legally prohibited from dramatization.<\/li>\n<li data-sourcepos=\"6:1-7:0\"><strong>Potential two-part release:<\/strong> The film has a significant amount of footage (reportedly 3.5 to 4 hours), leading Lionsgate to consider splitting it into two parts. This would naturally extend the production and release timeline.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"8:1-8:242\">Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer has stated they will announce a definitive release strategy and timing in the coming weeks. The film stars Michael Jackson&#8217;s real-life nephew, Jaafar Jackson, in the titular role, and is directed by Antoine Fuqua.<\/p>\n<h2>Video<\/h2>\n<div class=\"container-lazyload preview-lazyload container-youtube js-lazyload--not-loaded\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Swpb36meeRg\" class=\"lazy-load-youtube preview-lazyload preview-youtube\" data-video-title=\"Why Michael Jackson\u2019s Biopic Release Has Been Delayed\" title=\"Play video &quot;Why Michael Jackson\u2019s Biopic Release Has Been Delayed&quot;\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Swpb36meeRg<\/a><noscript>Video can&#8217;t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Swpb36meeRg\" title=\"Why Michael Jackson\u2019s Biopic Release Has Been Delayed\">Why Michael Jackson\u2019s Biopic Release Has Been Delayed (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Swpb36meeRg)<\/a><\/noscript><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watch the video at the end of this article.
