IF there were a Michael Jackson Biography film...who would you like to see portray?

Now....assuming that it would even or could even be made without looking ridiculous. Who do you think would make an accurate portrayal of Michael (witholding middle name for MJ's sake) Jackson?

Now this is considering that it likely couldn't be made, no doubt due to either white-washing "facts", serving the "estate" executives: the same that have released mostly trash product [see MICHAEL 2010, their approved (by euro trash producer William Orbit) hack version of the Freddie Mercury/Michael Jackson duet "There Must Be More To Life Than This", BAD 25 extras, No DANGEROUS 25, etc)

ALso considering that there is no "true story" regarding his death, the accusations [none of the involved have come forth in adulthood], nor the parentage of his children

DESPITE THAT, JUST HUMOR ME.... For a Michael Jackson Biography Feature Film... WHO IS IT?


My Top 3:

1) Chadwick Boseman:

THE REASON: Chadwick is already an established actor. His portrayal of James Brown wasn't bad. The moves are already half there, he'd just have to slim down a bit and make them tighter.

His nose and chin are perfect for post 84 Michael. His skin would only have to be lightened for latter years. The James Brown mannerisms already capture much of what MJ was aiming to do onstage. In terms of casting, he's got this one won

PS: He also does that lip curl smile thing that Michael did.

2) NBA's CLINT CAPELLA

THE REASON: Betcha he thought he'd fool everyone hiding in plain sight in the NBA!.... With a name like that no less(!!)... Might as well have used an "A" name so his jersey would read: A. CAPELLA....

THE CASE AGAINST:

Michael wouldn't want this secret exposed. REturning back to civil life would be horrendous.


His training with Lou Ferrigno paid off...and so did the skin treatments in China... In fact... I dont want to blow his cover (as IF anyone would read this)...but he'd only played with HOUSTON as a favor to the Chinese Government and Yao Ming.


You heard it here first.

#3) A CBS TV reporting correspondent I'm still trying to locate. I saw him cover a relay on the evening of this horrible Vegas shooting. (it was at 2am Sunday Evening/Monday morning)



THoughts?

UPDATE:

In searching for that other correspondent for KCBS... I found the perfect person for that awful "Dr" Conrad Murray....

News Correspondent/Anchor VERN GLENN



REASON:?

Doesn't he look like he could tell tall tales of high self praise after violating his hippocratic oath repeatedly and banging strippers on the side?

I'd like to see Latoya as MJ, Kathy Bates as Paris' mom, Corey Feldman as Blanket, and someone everyone loves like Ryan Gosling as the other one. Bianca Del Rio as Lisa Marie. David Alan Grier can play all the brothers via CGI. Or Ryan Gosling could play Wade Robson. Idc it'll be a hit if it has Ryan Gosling in it. David Alan Grier could also play Joe Jackson and Katherine Jackson via CGI.

if it was just a dream, call me a dreamer 2

I don't know, I'm always a little bit reserved when it comes to biopics about great stars such as MJ. Like, the actor who plays Freddy Mercury looks like him, and he's a good actor, but that doesn't mean he can pull off a Freddy Mercury. This boy was huge, I mean, he was one of the greatest performers on earth. The Movie will show I guess.

And Michael, man did you see "The Jackson's"? I don't think the actor was that great, sure he looked a bit like him, but I think his acting was weak. Now, you gotta find an actor who looks like him, who can dance good enough and who's a great stage persona.

In other words, wee need to find another Jamie Foxx, he killed it in Ray. We need an actor who pulls off MJ as good as Jamie Foxx did with Ray.

wow.

I didn't know he actually sang.

I missed that special. They also covered Damian Lilliard.

I didn't think Michae....I mean CLint would expose himself that way. I guess he couldn't resist it.


Like I said...all that work with Lou Ferrigno...and he's a different man! Charles Atlas style!

Different people at different phases of his life.

The Weeknd sounds good

Bruno Mars?

Justin Guarini

Shemar Moore? for an older Michael.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

A nephew - one of 3T, or maybe one of Randy's sons - perhaps Donte or Randy Jackson Junior?

Omer Bhatti seems to have the chiselled appearance or hey macauly culkin has the inside track if appearances don't matter so much. He'd be respectful.

Jackie and Jermaines sons although handsome look much more like their respective parents I think to play Michael and Marlon has daughters, unsure if rebbie-jackson has a son. Think it would be too much for little blanket and Prince has no wish to act.

Omer bhatti - left
Donte jackson - right

Omer is a friend who I think could play post 80s mj

Donte is officially his nephew (I think half brother but hey) who I think could play young and 80s mj
