The biopic of Michael Jackson is coming soon

I am not sure why this has taken so long, but Lifetime has officially confirmed that they will soon begin filming a biopic of the life of Michael Jackson. This comes just a day after they released the trailer for the Britney Spears biopic.

Now listen, Lifetime doesn’t make the best biopics but I am so excited to see this one in the comfort of my own home.

The biggest thing that people want to know is, who will be playing the King of Pop?

Well we know Joseph Fiennes won’t get the role especially after Sky Arts axed the Michael Jackson episode of “Urban Myths” (It is a “parody” of Michael Jackson and Liz Taylor after 9/11).

Michael had once stated in an interview with Oprah that he didn’t want a white actor to play him but he has never said anything about a white actress and for that reason, I (and a lot of social media) nominate Sandra Bullock to play the role.

Take a look at these pictures of The King of Pop and Sandra Bullock side to side. We’re definitely onto something right?
