Michael was FAILED and BETRAYED by everyone around him and he was never able to tell his truth.
Antoine Fuqua and John Logan spent SEVEN YEARS creating a very raw script that would’ve been groundbreaking. DONT LET THEM SILENCE MICHAEL AGAIN.
And I think we should consider this when reviewing the film. The ORIGINAL script took 7 years to make, half of this one was rushed in a few months. They were left with just a few usable scenes and had to reshape the entire context around them. The leaks showed MJ’s relationship with his faith, diana ross, stephanie mills, longer studio 54 scenes. They filmed heartbreak hotel, mitm, shake your body, and now it‘s all out. They even reshot Motown 25 completely. Everything was affected.
@HYPEX Damn, what's happening with Fortnite... Epic is allergic to money.
If epic REALLY WANTED TO MAKE MONEY TO PAY THE BILLS AND make the players happy they would do MJ as festival star
MICHAEL total budget was $170M, including $15M in reshoots.
It’s now tracking to be the first live-action of the year to open to $200M+ at the global box office.
