Michael Jackson Nephew Jaafar is Spitting Image: Shoots Scenes For MJ Biopic 

I'm so glad they honored him by having a family member play him. To me, that was the right thing.

“There will never be another Michael Jackson” -This Guy

He doesn’t have to look just like him. Capturing his spirit and essence is what counts like the actor that played Elvis. He didn’t look like Elvis that much but did capture his spirit.

I Love that Off The Wall Picture!❤❤

oh wow i got chills. he looks very much like MJ. i hope this is THE MJ biopic we have always wanted.

I don’t think he looks like him at all but he will probably do Michael justice in the biopic can’t wait to see it

Jaafar doesn't physically resemble MJ. MJ had large eyes and pronounced cheekbones... that being said, I think Jaafar will portray his uncle well. He is the right build and shares a gentleness and playfulness with MJ. I can't wait to see the finished movie.

I wouldn't say spot on but it's close enough

Wow it would have been so cool to have him and Michael performing together they are so similar. I'm so happy one of his relatives will play him in the movie 🥰

I can't wait 😍

This looks like it’s going to be good

I'm not ready for this movie 😢

Great job

Some of you MJ fanatics are absolutely ridiculous. Nobody is going to look EXACTLY like someone they're portraying. Jaafar is damn close and has MJ's body frame, height, mannerisms etc. Secondly, for those complaining, you're literally judging from paparazzi pictures from TMZ. Once this movie is edited, color correction, special effects, etc., you all will be singing a different tune but at the end of the day, Jaafar's ACTING skills is what is gonna carry this movie, not how much he LOOKS like Michael. I also think some of y'all hate Jermaine so much, that you get a kick out of saying Jaafar looks EXACTLY like Jermaine. I see a mix of Jermaine AND Michael in Jaafar, I see JACKSON GENES.🙄 Stop acting like unhinged zealots. This movie is truly aimed for the general public to have a better understanding of Michael, not for your obsessive fantasy to see MJ rise from the dead to play himself on screen. Those whining deserve Flex Alexander part II as Michael. That will fix y'all.🙄

Spitting image. 😂

He only looks like Michael when he is smiling in the OTW scenes, otherwise this just looks like another impersonator.

There are millions of MJ look a likes in this world.. before and after MJ

❤❤❤❤I can't wait

You can never make a person resemble another person perfectly. Its obviously impossible to do that even if its a family member portraying Michael. Don't count this film out yet though. I think Jaafar is going to do a phenomenal job on screen. He doesnt necessarily have to look exactly like him, but the most important thing is embodying his movment, eye movement, facial expressions, spirit, voice, aura & essence of MJ he will do just fine and i think its gonna please the fans a lot. I know he's gonna kill it.

Not splitting image. Looks like Jermaine. Michael's eyes are much bigger and Dave shape is different. But hope Jaafar does a great job 👍🏽

Bro how do you mess up dudes name? Its the same name from the bad guy from Aladdin. 😂😂😂

Now that Colman Domingo is playing the father Joe Jackson, next we need Halle Bailey as MJ’s little sister Janet Jackson Nia Long as Katherine Jackson Madison Pettis as LaToya Jackson Jaison Hunter as Tito Jackson Caleb McLaughlin as Jermaine Jackson Riley Keough as Lisa Marie Presley, MJ’s first wife Julia Garner as Madonna Kristen Stewart or Elizabeth DeBicki as Princess Diana (Diana convinced MJ to preform Dirty Diana as she claimed that it was one of her favorite song) Viven Lyra Blair or Lexi Rabe as Paris Jackson and Sabrina Carpenter as Debbie Rowe, MJ’s 2nd wife I still think that this musical drama biopic film should just get distributed by just Universal Pictures 🌍. Not Lionsgate for unknown reasons. I really hope they add all of MJ’s songs like Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough, Rock With You, Billie Jean, Beat It, Thriller, I Just Can’t Stop Lovin’ You, Bad, Dirty Diana, Smooth Criminal, Man In The Mirror, Speed Demon, Give In To Me, Heal The World, Jam, Black or White, Remember The Time, Ghosts, Blood On The Dance Floor, and You Rock My World, including the ones when he was a member of the J5 when he was a kid like I Want You Back, ABC, The Love You Save, Dance Machine, Got To Be There, Ben, and when he was a teenager and was still a member of The Jacksons like Enjoy Yourself, Blame It On The Boogie, and Shake Your Body Down To The Ground. Wish and hope that they add the scene where his hair got on fire while he was filming the Pepsi Commercials, The scene of him filming The Wiz as Scarecrow The scene of writing and performing “We Are The World” with the entire singers like Billy Joel, Tina Turner, Lionel Richie, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross, Steven Perry, Bette Midler, Kenny Loggins, Cyndi Lauper, and Bryan Adams. Scene during the Super Bowl halftime show, Imagine if the film could get a 3hrs run-time, and/or get split up to part 1, 2, and/or 3, and if it’s good, it deserves a $1B or $2B Box Office. I also wish that the film could get moved to August 2025 in time for what would’ve been the late legendary King of Pop’s 67th Birthday. Thank you, Director Antoine Fuqua and Universal Pictures.

🥰😍🥰❤️

Ok please learn how to pronounce names. Its pronounced Ja-Far not jaffer LOL

Ok, ok ,ok, come on guys‼️ we all know theres only one Michael, but give the kid a break, he is Michael's blood nephew and he does resemble him somewhat, and even somewhat more with the same make-up‼️This young man loves his uncle Michael so much he wants to portray him and he wants to make Michael proud of him ‼️ Now stop being so selfish and mean mugging on the kid, give him credit like his uncl gave you and everyone he knew‼️Lets make our country great again and have peace and respect and love for each other, like Michael wants us to do❤

I agree i don't think he looks like Michael at all.

"Leaks"

Splitting image? Are you being serious right now, bro? Sorry, but no. There is only one MJ. Also, he does not look like Michael, so I have no idea why people say that. He looks more like his father, Jermain; he is the spitting image of him, not Michael.

No he's not!

👶❤💜💌💌💌💗

NO GET IT RIGHT HE LOOK TITO SORRY EVERYBODY

He does not look that much like Michael even with the clay makeup..

How embarrassing. He looks silly.🤣

sick of this ai trash already

Wonder why they couldnt get one of his kids to do it.

They only show pics of MJ for most of the video because Jafar doesn't look like him. This is clickbait.

Why don't they use AI to make him completely look like Michael?

They should have used casanova

lol joffer

When Mike was caramel. Then it got worse
