After a record-breaking opening weekend, Michael Jackson’s biopic, Michael, starring Jaafar Jackson, will receive a sequel, Michael 2, as revealed by Lionsgate chairman Adam Fogelson.
Speaking on The Town, Fogelson confirmed that development on the sequel is underway after the film secured the biggest opening ever for a biopic. The original biopic, directed by Antoine Fuqua (“Training Day”), details the King of Pop’s rise from child star to global superstar.
Jaafar Jackson has received rave reviews for his acting debut, playing his uncle. According to Fogelson, the years that follow offer expansive material for continuation.
“There is a massive amount of music and life experiences, separate from allegations, that could fill more than a second movie,” Fogelson said.
