Michael’s estate confirmed the news via the pop star’s official website. Recently Antoine Fuqua was announced to direct the film, which is said to chronicle the life and career of the Thriller artist.
The Hollywood Reporter reported that the movie producer of the Oscar-winning Queen biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody, Graham King, is a fan of Jaafar’s and is looking forward to Michael’s kin playing the role.
“I met Jaafar over two years ago and was blown away by the way he organically personifies the spirit and personality of Michael,” said King. “It was something so powerful that even after conducting a worldwide search, it was clear that he is the only person to take on this role. I am beyond thrilled that he has come on board to portray his uncle and cannot wait for the world to see him on the big screen as Michael Jackson.”
Jaafar is the son of Jermaine Jackson, Michael’s older brother, who was part of The Jackson 5.
“Jaafar embodies my son,” said Katherine Jackson, Michael’s mother, of the choice to have her grandson play Michael. “It’s so wonderful to see him carry on the Jackson legacy of entertainers and performers.”
