Michael (12A)
Jaafar Jackson portrays his late uncle in a biographical drama directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by John Logan, which focuses instead on the singer’s rise to global superstardom as the cherubic lead of The Jackson Five and his solo forays with the albums Off The Wall, Thriller and Bad. Success comes at a cost to relationships with his controlling father Joe and mother Katherine and as Michael’s star rises, some of his siblings feel resentment that they can’t join him in the stratosphere.
