Jason Weaver is a legend. And why nobody talking about Smart Guy too. Loved that show. Love him. Always seems like a guy with a lot of integrity and picks really great things to play.
They actually wanted Jason to do the role in its entirety but had already signed on Jonathan Taylor Thomas before his audition. Unfortunate, but not uncommon. They can’t always count on finding young children who can both act and sing well.
Wow. Hell of a story. I’ve always been astounded by his performance as young MJ! Especially in that scene where he performed “Who’s Loving You?” He absolutely killed it on that song! & the fact that it was filmed days before production wrapped & he recorded The Lion King right after because Elton John was there on set is really cool!
MET HIM IN THE HAVANA CLUB IN ATLANTA ABOUT 20+ YEARS AGO AND JOKED WITH HIM ABOUT BEING ON THE TV SHOW "THEA" WITH THEA VIDALE. HE JOKED THAT THE NEXT TIME I SAW HIM WOULD BE PLAYING A ROLE IN "ATL" AND THAT WOULD BE MUCH DIFFERENT FROM PLAYING MJ 😂😂😂 HE TOLD ME TO COME BACK TO ATL AS I WAS GETTING READY TO DEPLOY TO IRAQ. GOOD DUDE!
It’s January 2024 and I am only JUST NOW learning that the kid that played MJ in that Jackson 5 movie was the same kid that did Simba’s singing voice from the Lion King! WHAT???!!! MIND=BLOWN!!
Hes the best person to play mj along with the billie jean era from the same movie. The same guy was off the wall mic but he wasnt as gd in that era but he captured the awkward moments well. An american dream is a reall great movie
Please correct the volume? I'm on an HP and my volume is up as high as it will go, and I don't want, or know, how to add my laptop to my other TV. It's so low it's not worth it. Maybe if in the middle of the night, but I have to sleep. If I remember to come back and am bored I may try it then. But seriously, it's no traffic here, but it's still too low it not worth straining to hear you
Also with a child in the background makes it even worse. Seriously, you sang Broadway but have no clue how to volumize your videos. Please use one of those knobs you have in front of you to project the sound better, OK??????
