The three-part docuseries efforts to re-examine Jackson’s later life in the spotlight. Director Nick Green and producer Fiona Stourton talked to TUDUM about the upcoming project.
“It has been 20 years since the trial of Michael Jackson in which he was found not guilty. Yet, to this day, controversy still rages,” the filmmakers explained. “No cameras were allowed in court, and so the public’s view of the facts at the time were filtered by commentators and presented piecemeal. It was time to take a forensic look at the trial as a whole.”
“Anyone interested in the Michael Jackson story should feel this documentary gives them a window into what was largely a closed event and a chance to feel closer to what happened.”
What else is coming?
Netflix teases the new event series. “Michael Jackson: The Verdict revisits the case that became one of the most closely watched legal sagas of all time. Featuring key individuals who were inside the courtroom, including jurors, eyewitnesses, and accusers and defenders alike, the three-part docuseries dissects the case against Jackson from the perspectives of both the prosecution and the defense.”
Michael Jackson: The Verdict is created by showrunner David Herman, who also executive produces alongside Fiona Stourton and James Goldston. Nick Green directs all three episodes, and the series is produced by Candle True Stories.
