The Michael Jackson biopic ‘Michael’ may be split into two films, with the current cut approaching four hours. The film, starring Jaafar Jackson as the King of Pop, wrapped filming in May 2024 with a $155 million budget. Director Antoine Fuqua and Lionsgate executives are considering the split to avoid cutting parts of Jackson’s story. The release date may be delayed from October 3rd in the US if the split occurs. The film has faced challenges, including refilming the third act due to banned sexual abuse allegations.
