Michael Jackson’s Family Allegedly Poised to Unveil His Dark Secrets in Biopic Sequel — If the Price Is Right
The Jackson family is reportedly in a heated dispute over the content of the upcoming sequel to the highly successful Michael Jackson biopic, as sources told the outlet. The first film, which ended on a triumphant note with the King of Pop's 1988 Bad Tour at Wembley Stadium, avoided covering the more controversial aspects of Jackson's later years, including child sexual abuse allegations.
Per AOL, the sequel is expected to explore those darker chapters, including the 1993 civil suit brought by the family of Jordan Chandler and the 1994 criminal investigation that was eventually closed. However, insiders say that the family remains deeply divided on how much of Michael Jackson's troubled past should be revealed.
"A lot of Michael's family members would sell him out tomorrow if they thought the money was big enough," an insider said. "The only people stopping that from happening are his mom, Katherine Jackson, and his kids."
Katherine Jackson and Michael's three children—Prince Jackson, 29; Paris Jackson, 28; and Bigi Jackson, 24—are said to be fiercely protective of the late singer's legacy. They continue to exert control over the narrative, which explains why the first film concluded before touching on the most contentious periods.
In contrast, some extended family members, who do not have access to Jackson's estimated $789 million estate, reportedly support a more revealing sequel. Jermaine Jackson, Michael's brother, has encouraged Paris to support the biopic series, emphasizing that "this is finally our opportunity" to tell the full story.
Radar Online reported that the tension between preserving Michael's image and uncovering his controversies has created a rift within the family. Sources claim that if Katherine and Michael's children were no longer obstacles, other relatives would be willing to participate in a more explicit sequel "because that's where the money is."
The biopic sequel's potential to expose sensitive details about Michael Jackson's life has ignited quiet but growing feuds among family members.
The fight continues to underscore the difficulty of balancing legacy preservation with the public's desire to know more about one of pop culture's most complicated and divisive figures.
