"'Michael Jackson is one of the most influential artists in human history. His impact on music, fashion, dance, film and business has withstood the test of time,' said Adam Fogelson, the chair of the Lionsgate Motion Picture Group."
"'All of those things together seem to have created a profound response from audiences of all ages,' he added."
"'Michael,' starring the legendary pop star's nephew, Jaafar Jackson, hits 3,900 screens nationwide on Friday."
"'The stakes may be higher for 'Michael,' not just because of its roughly $200 million cost, but also its circuitous journey to the big screen.'"
'Michael' is projected to surpass the $60 million opening weekend record set by 'Straight Outta Compton.' The film, directed by Antoine Fuqua, features Jaafar Jackson and will be released on 3,900 screens. Michael Jackson's influence on music and culture is highlighted by Lionsgate's Adam Fogelson. The film's development faced delays due to legal issues and changes in storyline, aiming to cover Jackson's life from childhood fame to the controversies he faced in the 1990s.
