""It says that people don't care that he was a child molester. Literally, people just don't care," Reed told The Hollywood Reporter of the film in a recent interview."
""I think clearly some of the press is sucking up to the Jackson machine because: A, the estate and the fan base has always ensured that the price of criticizing Michael is years of invective and smears and what have you.""
""And B, there's a ton of money to be made by any kind of association with the Jackson IP. If you can get on board and be part of the success of this movie, then that's going to be good for you.""
Dan Reed, known for the documentary 'Leaving Neverland', criticized the new biopic about Michael Jackson, directed by Antoine Fuqua. The film has received a high audience score despite negative reviews from critics. Reed expressed concern that the film overlooks serious allegations against Jackson, stating that many fans ignore these issues due to their love for his music. He also criticized media coverage, suggesting that financial interests and fear of backlash from Jackson's estate influence how the press reports on the singer's legacy.
