King of Pop Michael Jackson is getting his own biopic produced by the same mind behind Freddie Mercury biopic Bohemian Rhapsody. Graham King will produce the John Logan-penned script, with the duo reuniting after previously working on Martin Scorsese’s The Aviator, and Antoine Fuqua will be directing. The Lionsgate-backed film won’t just explore Jackson’s child star upbringings, but will even tackle the pedophile allegations that plagued his later years, sources told Deadline. The film is the latest in a slew of star biopics, following Whitney Houston’s I Wanna Dance with Somebody—which stumbled at the box office—and the Elvis biopic that has garnered Oscar buzz for lead Austin Butler.
