Jaafar Jackson is with ET’s Kevin Frazier in Berlin ahead of the release of Michael Jackson’s biopic, ‘Michael’. Jaafar, who plays his late uncle in the film, reveals the hardest Michael performance to recreate on screen, and how many people he had to beat out to land the role of a lifetime. Plus, Jaafar takes ET through an immersive Michael Jackson fan pop-up experience in Germany, where he gets to see all of the iconic costumes that were recreated for the film. ‘Michael’ hits theaters on April 24.

Oh Jaafar when you do the rest of Michael’s. Life I hope you don’t have to do his death .I don’t know if I could handle that . I cried when your Uncle passed away.
He’s such a beautiful young man and a great actor.
Went to see it last night with my 19 year old granddaughter and 7 year old grandson. Generations apart, but the love was the same. My grandson was belting out the lyrics to his music; I was taken back to my childhood when I lived with my Grandma and just the build up to the release of the Thriller video. She knew how much I “LOVED” Michael and lovingly created a party for the release…just her and I and a bunch of our favorite snack food. I found myself uncontrollably bawling throughout the movie. So much nostalgia, love and the purest music and voice you will EVER hear. RIP Michael. You are still so loved and admired 🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭😭😭😭💖💖💖💖💖💖💔💔💔💔💔💔
HE LOOKS JUST LIKE MICHAEL WHEN HE WAS YOUNG. LONG LIVE THE KING 👑💖💖💖👑👑👑👑
Jaafar put in the work, and God made it happen! Amen! ❤❤❤😊
Tan bello,humilde, disciplinado,definitivamente un gran hombre.
Muchas bendiciones y éxito en todos los aspectos de la vida.
