New Michael Jackson Biopic ‘Proves’ That Michael Was INNOCENT Of Abuse Claims!

There’s a new big budget Michael Jackson biopic in the works, and Media take Out learned that the movie sets out to prove that Michael is innocent of the abuse allegations against him.

According to a report from Matthew Belloni of Puck, a reporter who read the script, the movie digs into the accusations that MJ abused children at his Neverland ranch. This is a bit surprising considering Jackson’s estate is directly involved with the Antoine Fuqua-directed biopic.

And the movie stars the late pop star’s nephew Jaafar Jackson in his acting debut.

But the movie is set to convince viewers that he’s innocent.

“If the script as written ends up onscreen—which is a big caveat here because words and scenes are often changed during shoots, and not everything goes in the final cut—this will be super controversial,” wrote Belloni. “It not only engages, it wants very much to convince you Michael is innocent.”

Belloni chose not to reveal too much of the script he reviewed, but he did reveal that the version he read actually opens with Jackson watching police arrive at his estate following allegations made by a then 13-year-old Jordan Chandler.

The boy alleged in 1993 that Jackson molested him. The singer later reached a $20 million settlement with him. The screenplay is said to minimize the claims made against Jackson, including a scene in which lawyers John Branca and Johnnie Cochran describe the allegations as an “extortion” attempt.

“This assault, this scorching trauma, will shake him to the core and never leave him,” reads the script, which includes a scene of Michael being humiliated and strip-searched by police.

Another portion describes Jackson, who faced a criminal trial over seven counts of alleged child molestation, as “uniquely comfortable around kids.” Branca, in another scene, says, “It’s not the kids I’m worried about, it’s the parents. He’s opening his door to tons of people we don’t know. And there’s a lot of greedy people in the world.”

Belloni continued, “The takeaway from Michael is that Michael Jackson had an abusive father who caused him to become a horribly insecure yet harmless Peter Pan, constantly reliving the childhood he never had. And ultimately, that was weaponized by bad people trying to exploit him,” wrote Belloni. “What’s interesting is how aggressive the script is in the pursuit to make Michael look innocent.”

Jackson was never found guilty of the allegations made against him, but they followed his legacy from the early ’90s and beyond his death from an accidental overdose in 2009 at age 50.
