I had read that they were making a biopic about Michael Jackson. I did not listen to his music when I was growing up, but he was still the King of Pop, and he defined a generation. You could probably summon any GenXer by simply playing Thriller, Bad, Smooth Criminal, or Black and White. Anyway, in case you missed it, here is the Michael Jackson biopic teaser trailer.

Fun fact: the actor cast to portray Michael Jackson is Jaafar Jackson. Yes, he is the nephew of the legendary pop artist, and this is his film debut. How cool is that??

I may not have been a fan, but I’ll still watch this movie. I wasn’t a Ray Charles fan either, but I still really enjoyed Ray. Hopefully, this movie will have similar success. Although I hope the film focuses more on his music and maybe steers clear of some of his more eccentric life decisions.

Enjoy.
