It's a comedy but the left is apoplectic.
"Black Lives Matter" leader DeRay Mckesson lamented, "They seriously couldn't find a black actor to play Michael Jackson?"
Is this not what Michael Jackson would have wanted?
There was a rumor once that Michael Jackson wanted a white child to portray him in a Pepsi commercial - later he denied this to Oprah Winfrey.

Considering MJ’s efforts in the last two decades of his life he would have been over the moon.
I’m guess the same people outraged by this are the same ones demanding that the next James Bond should be a black actor.

That is absolutely priceless!!!
Maybe they should have cast a white woman to play OJ Simpson in the docu-drama “The People vs. OJ Simpson”. That would have made the BLM movement implode.

Well, we zhes and Jenners. We had that politician who pretended to be black.
I reckon it's OK for an actor to pretend.
I suppose Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and the extreme racist group blacklivesmatter will sue him for eleventy zillion dollars.

It's a comedy but the left is apoplectic. Of course, when a white character is portrayed by a black actor (Perry White, 'James' Olsen, Wally West, Nick Fury, on and on); it's all good. If you object, you're a racist.

On the TV series, Once Upon A Time, Merlin and Lancelot are black.

Michael would have
insisted a white actor portray him.
He spent most of his later years tying to get white anyway.

Michael always wanted to be a white woman so it makes sense to have a white actor in the role.
To: Bon of Babble
LMAO...! Paging Academy Awards!
To: Bon of Babble
He is playing the adult version of Michael Jackson, after he became white. If the movie was about Michael Jackson as a child then they would need a black actor.
I think that feminist groups should be upset that they did not hire a transvestite actress for the role.

Is this not what Michael Jackson would have wanted? Michael Jackson would have wanted Elizabeth Taylor to play him.

LOL!
They already did a version for the black MJ back in 1992, I think.

Oh, this will go over well. Where’s my popcorn . . . ?
