Cast

History

Background

During the production of Michael, the idea into splitting the film into two separate parts was possible. However the production team decided to not.[2]

Following the first films successful release in the box office, speculation whether a sequel would release began.[3] In late April 2026, Jaafar Jackson expressed his interest in starring as Michael Jackson again and Graham King stated that "he was thinking of some things regarding a sequel."[4][5][6] Adam Folgeson, Chairman at Lionsgate Studios, said that the film would most likely focus on the 1993 sexual abuse allegations on Jackson.[7]

Production

In late May 2026, Fogelson announced a sequel for Michael following the film's success.[8][9][10] Development then began on May 21, 2026.[11] It was then revealed that 30% of the film has been shot.[12] Production is expected to start in late 2026 or early 2027.[1] A projected release date is scheduled for 2027 or 2028.[13]
