“Michael”the biographical film about Michael Jackson It is being one of the film news of the year, especially when the screenwriters’ strike that reactivated the project ended. That is why the day is rare when some new information is not known about the ambitious project.
And just a few hours ago has announced who will be the child who will play Michael Jackson when he was little. As you know, Jackson was the quintessential child prodigy of the music industry, triumphing worldwide from the age of nine alongside the already legendary Jackson Five.
Which actor will play Michael Jackson as a child in his long-awaited film?
Well, the actor who will play little Michael will be the promising Juliano Krue Valdian actor who will thus join a cast that includes Jafar Jackson (son of Jermaine Jackson and nephew of Michael himself) as an adult Jackson.
These have been the words of Graham King producer of the film, regarding the final choice of the young actor:
Aside from being an incredible young talent, Juliano Krue is deeply inspired by Michael Jackson’s music and has managed to translate that influence into a presence and performance that projects the full, authentic magic of Michael Jackson.
Of course, Antoine Fuqua (director of the film and director behind great feature films like “Training Day”) also has words of praise for Juliano:
It was harder to cast young Michael than adult Michael, because where do we get a child actor with the talent of the greatest artist who ever lived?
If Michael Jackson fans have the hype through the roof with the ambitious production that has just begun, the words of King and Fuqua about the child actor who will play Michael will only further fuel those expectations for a film that will be released ( if nothing fails) in April 2025.
