Michael Jackson Documentary Continued on March

The Michael Jackson documentary “Leaving Neverland” will officially be continued.

An hour -long follow -up film, subtitled ‘Surviving Michael Jackson’, debuts on March 18 at UK’s Channel 4, Variety has confirmed. The sequel will overtake Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who accused the King of Pop of sexual abuse when they were minors. Jackson denied the allegations during his life, and his legacy continues to do this.

HBO, who produced the two-part 2019 document, is not involved in the follow-up. In 2020, HBO lost a legal battle against the Jackson estate, which the babler sued $ 100 million and argued that “Leaving Neverland” violated a 27-year non-Dispicrowing Clause from a 1992 concert film from the “Dangerous” tour.

Directed by Dan Reed, “Leaving Neverland 2” will explore the personal toll on Robson and Safechuck after they were made public with accusations against Jackson. The two men continue to seek justice while they are confronted with the recoil of his worldwide army of fans.

Jackson was confronted throughout his career with multiple accusations of sexual abuse of children and was confronted with criminal prosecution that led to a highly published trial in 2005. He denied all allegations and was not found guilty on all points.

“Leaving Neverland 2” is produced by Reed through his production company Amos Pictures. Marguerite Gaudin is the producer, while Peter Haddon and Ben Hills served as Editors. Iris Maor was head of production and Adam Vandermark is the Channel 4 commissioner. Sphere Abacus deals with international sales.
