Lionsgate has released a new trailer for the upcoming movie ‘Michael’ based on the life and career of Michael Jackson.

MICHAEL is the cinematic portrayal of the life and legacy of one of the most influential artists the world has ever known. The film tells the story of Michael Jackson’s life beyond the music, tracing his journey from the discovery of his extraordinary talent as the lead of the Jackson Five, to the visionary artist whose creative ambition fueled a relentless pursuit to become the biggest entertainer in the world. Highlighting both his life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career, the film gives audiences a front-row seat to Michael Jackson as never before. This is where his story begins.

Michael stars Jaafar Jackson, Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Juliano Krue Valdi, Miles Teller and Colman Domingo.

Produced by Graham King, John Branca and John McClain, Michael is written by John Logan (Skyfall, Gladiator) and directed by Antione Fuqua (The Equalizer, Training Day).

Michael comes to theaters April 24th.
