Michael Jackson biopic will reportedly address sexual abuse allegations

Michael Jackson biopic will reportedly address the allegations of child sexual abuse against the singer.Given that the film has the approval of the Jackson estate, it had been unclear whether the film would explore the most controversial aspects of his life, but a new report suggests it will.Puck News’ Matthew Belloni has obtained an early draft of the script, and says that the film “wants very much to convince you Michael is innocent”, adding that it goes to “great lengths to minimise and downplay the actual claims and eviscerate the Chandlers”.In 1993, Evan Chandler, a dentist and screenwriter based in Los Angeles, accused Jackson of sexually abusing his 13-year-old son Jordan. The case was concluded when the two parties reached a financial settlement in 1994.In 2013, four years after Jackson’s death, the choreographer Wade Robson filed a lawsuit against his estate, saying Jackson had sexually abused him between the ages of seven and 14.

‘Top Gun 3’ is in the works with script underway

Tom Cruise is set to star in a third Top Gun movie.According to Puck News, Paramount has commissioned Top Gun: Maverick screenwriter Ehren Kruger to start work on a third instalment in the franchise.The studio also plans for director Joseph Kosinski to return and for Cruise to reunite with his co-stars Glen Powell and Miles Teller as well as producers Jerry Bruckheimer and David Ellison.Cruise is currently shooting the next Mission: Impossible movie for Paramount which is scheduled to be released on May 23, 2025.Reviewing the 2022 sequel Top Gun: Maverick, NME awarded the film three stars and described it as “an engaging if brainless return to the danger zone”.It added: “Trickled between some breathtaking sequences of G-Force 9 air ballet, it makes for an entertaining blockbuster ride back into the danger zone, albeit one with the fuel pipe to its brain resolutely disengaged.”Cruise, meanwhile recently personally stepped in to support his agent, after she was relieved of her duties following pro-Palestinian social media posts.She had made a number of posts on Instagram, including one that read: “What’s more heartbreaking than witnessing genocide? Witnessing the denial that genocide is happening.”Cruise took “the rare step of going in person” to her office to show his support for her, and he made it known to CAA that he was backing her.
