I heard it’s only going cover up to Bad :what:
Good decision IMO. I’m sure someone like Fuqua wants to celebrate black excellence, going past bad requires you to bring in all the drama. Best way to completely shut down those foaming at the mouth to “but akshually” MJ, is not even entertaining that timeline.

Originally the second part was to include all that drama but legal issues prevented it. Scenes were filmed.

Another biopic that rushes through the person’s life instead of telling a story or developing characters because it’s too focused on showing off the re-creations of that person's iconic moments.

:russell:
Yea, that kinda happens with movies. Surprise!

They wanted theatrical film for MJ, not a miniseries which is what you seem to be asking for
