LOS ANGELES-Responding to concerns that his upcoming Michael Jackson biopic would downplay accusations of sexual abuse involving the late singer, Michael director Antoine Fuqua revealed to reporters Wednesday that the film would fully confront allegations against actor Kevin Spacey. Though it might make people uncomfortable, no movie about the King of Pop would be complete without addressing the sexual assault claims that caused Netflix to cut ties with Kevin Spacey in 2017," said Fuqua, adding that while his film would celebrate Jackson's music, it would not hold back from depicting theHouse Of Cardsstar's controversial past. There have been rumors that we're shooting a full-on Michael Jackson lovefest, so let's get one thing straight: This will not be a sanitized portrait of Kevin Spacey. Rest assured, we will absolutely go there. However, I must be clear that the allegations against the actor are ultimately just that-allegations." Fuqua also confirmed that the biopic would offeracandid look at the sexual misconduct of comedian Louis C.K.
