Michael Jackson’s Nephew Jaafar Jackson Transforms Into the Music Icon in First Look: See Side-By-Side Photos


Michael Jackson’s nephew Jaafar Jackson looks just like the late King of Pop in the first photo from the upcoming biopic ‘Michael.’

Similar to Michael, the 27-year-old has his hair pulled back and rocks a white shirt with red detailing and a V-neck top underneath. “When I arrived for my first day on the set of this movie, I was so excited – it was like the first time I went on tour to shoot Michael Jackson,” Kevin said in a statement. Director Antoine Fuqua also released a statement about the upcoming biopic: “We have assembled an incredible team of artists for this project – hair & makeup, costumes, cinematography, choreography, lighting, everything – and some who knew and worked with Michael are reuniting for this film.
