The tributes come as anticipation builds for the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic, “Michael,” directed by Antoine Fuqua and set for release in 2025. The film, announced in March, will feature Jaafar Jackson, Michael’s nephew and the son of Jermaine Jackson, in the lead role. Nia Long will portray Katherine Jackson, and Kat Graham will play Diana Ross. The biopic will chronicle Michael Jackson’s life and career, from his early days with the Jackson 5 to his monumental success as a solo artist.
