Oscar-winning Bohemian Rhapsody<\/em> producer Graham King and Gladiator<\/em> screenwriter John Logan have teamed up to bring Michael Jackson’s biopic to life.<\/p>\n

Lionsgate will handle the worldwide distribution of the film, the studio\u2019s chair Joe Drake said Monday.<\/p>\n

The studio said that the film will give, \u201can in-depth portrayal of the complicated man who became the King of Pop\u201d and that it will bring to life his \u201cmost iconic performances as it gives an informed insight into the entertainer\u2019s artistic process and personal life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Graham King will produce with John Branca and John McClain, the co-executors of the Michael Jackson estate.<\/p>\n

According to Deadline,<\/a> Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Chair Joe Drake said: \u201cI am very excited that Lionsgate will be part of this epic film, and thrilled to be working with Graham, who has proven success in telling iconic life stories, from Bohemian Rhapsody<\/em> to Ali<\/em>; when combined with John, we couldn\u2019t be in more extraordinary hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI first met the Jackson family in 1981 and I\u2019m humbled to bring their legacy to the big screen. Sitting at Dodger Stadium watching the Victory Tour, I could never have imagined that nearly 38 years later I would get the privilege to be a part of this film,” Graham added.<\/p>\n

Michael’s mother, Katherine Jackson, also said in a statement that, \u201cEver since Michael was little, as a member of The Jackson 5, he loved the magic of cinema… As a family, we are honoured to have our life story come alive on the big screen.\u201d<\/p>\n

His life and music recently inspired a Broadway show, MJ<\/em>, which takes place as he prepares for the 1992 Dangerous World Tour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
