The new movie about the life of Michael Jackson was originally scheduled for April but has been pushed back months due to re-shoots

Directed by Antoine Fuqua (“Training Day,” “The Equalizer” films) with a script by three-time Oscar nominee John Logan, “Michael” tells the story of the late superstar, who died in 2009 at the age of 50 as a result of acute propofol intoxication.

The team behind an upcoming big-budget Michael Jackson biopic is racing to rewrite, reshoot, and re-edit the film’s third act after they discovered it violated a decades-old agreement with one of Jackson’s underage accusers.

A key agreement in a massive settlement was reportedly overlooked while vetting the script, leaving producers scrambling to do rewrites and reshoots.

Michael, the forthcoming Michael Jackson biopic, is facing a potential delay over the film’s controversial third act, which has legal implications.

The upcoming biopic about Michael Jackson reportedly needs to be reshot after a past legal agreement from an accuser was recently discovered. According to a report from Puck on Thursday, January 23, the film initially included the lawsuit against the late musician - who died in 2009 at age 50 - filed by Evan Chandler.
