The highly anticipated official Michael Jackson biopic, Michael, has now appeared on Apple TV in the platform’s “Coming Soon” section, catching the attention of fans worldwide. While this listing confirms growing momentum around the project, it remains unclear whether the deal was finalized by Universal Pictures or the Michael Jackson Estate, and no official release date has yet been announced.
What has sparked discussion among fans is the runtime displayed on Apple TV, which currently lists the movie at 2 hours. Many expected the biopic to be significantly longer, given the scope of Michael Jackson’s life, career, and cultural impact. As a result, some fans have expressed concern that a two-hour runtime may not be sufficient to fully tell his story.
However, others speculate that the listed duration may simply be a placeholder, used by the platform until final details are confirmed. With post-production still underway and official announcements pending, the runtime, along with other key information, could change. For now, fans will have to wait for further clarification as excitement continues to build around Michael.
