Overview

• In Instagram posts this week, Paris Jackson said she had zero percent involvement in Michael and asked to be left out of the project’s promotion.
• She said she read an early draft, flagged dishonesty, was told her notes would not be addressed, and described Hollywood biopics as controlled narratives with inaccuracies and lies.
• Her comments counter Colman Domingo’s remarks to People at a Venice amfAR event claiming Paris and her brother Prince were very supportive and that he had chatted with her about the film.
• The Lionsgate release, directed by Antoine Fuqua and starring Jaafar Jackson as Michael, is produced with the Jackson estate and is scheduled for April 24, 2026.
• Earlier reporting noted rewrites and reshoots tied to legal constraints, which production sources disputed, and family responses have differed, with Prince previously expressing support.
