Michael Jackson's Nephew Tapped for Big Screen Biopic

Earlier this month it was announced that Training Day director Antoine Fuqua would be directing the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic [click here if you missed that]. 

 Jackson's nephew Jaafar has been tapped for the title role...

Jaafar is the son of Jermaine Jackson and his ex wife Alejandra Genevieve Oaziaza. Oaziaza also has two sons with Randy Jackson who she dated before marrying Jermaine and having three children with him.

No member of the Jackson family (except for maybe LaToya) has ever told the truth about being a Jackson so we know their “authorized” movie is going to suck.

Mj had sooooo many faces so how on Earth is one person gonna play him? Maybe they are gonna use special effects lol

Which MJ is that soft boy gonna play? The MJ from 1980 - 1988? After that didn't go completely white? And, before 1980 he was actually brown.

Yeah MJ was so many shades. They must use CGI like someone suggested. And can we talk about how his half brothers are his first cousins. Jermaine is pure dee do do for that.

@12:00, where have you been? LOLOL
You need 22 faces to cover MJ's life.

They can easily portray his many faces if they tell the truth on how racism affected his life, self image, and music. But they don’t even want to go there.

Love that pic of Michael with his Afro.

Casting Jaafar was an excellent choice. He is a triple threat and strongly resembles young Michael. I am sure that being so closely associated with the subject of the biopic will lead to Jaafar putting his whole heart into this project.

@5:46 Jaafar get off of here. The only Jermaine child I'm familiar with is Jermagesty and Jermaine Jr who has a child with Asa. I've never heard of you. I know your dad got you on. And Michael younger self wasn't that light.

MJ did not resemble Jaafar when he was young. Mike recorded OFF THE WALL when he was 21 and he still looked like a bruh from neighborhood.

He had a nose job by then, but that’s it. No skin lightening measures were used at that time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off_the_Wall
