Deadline. The film from director Antione Fuqua was a big part of 2024's Lionsgate CinemaCon presentation, however no footage from the biopic was shown during these year's convention, nor was it even mentioned.

Antoine Fuqua’s upcoming Michael Jackson biopic, “Michael,” may be split into two movies. As a result, the Lionsgate and Universal Pictures International project will likely push its current Oct. 3 release date.

Producer Graham King is mulling a new reality for the project, but the idea is in early stages and would require sign-off from multiple partners, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter.
