10 Upcoming Movies That Have Just Been Delayed

10. Michael

Over the last decade or so, the movie industry has seen something of an uptick in the trend of musician biopics. The likes of Bohemian Rhapsody, Rocketman, Elvis, A Complete Unknown, and many more have told the often embellished stories of world-famous artists, with arguably the most iconic entertainer ever coming up.

Michael is set to tell the story of Michael Jackson, with his nephew Jaafar Jackson playing the title role alongside the likes of Colman Domingo and Miles Teller, and will naturally aim to hit similar levels of success as Bohemian Rhapsody did seven years ago.

However, there have been issues off-screen that have resulted in the film being delayed multiple times. Initially set for an April 2025 release, Michael was pushed back to October, though another setback has landed it a new release date sometime in 2027.

This is a huge delay, and the fact that there isn't a concrete date set doesn't bode too well either. The reason for this massive bump in the road is that Michael Jackson's estate has banned any of the serious allegations made against the singer from being dramatised on film. This has reportedly led to Michael's entire third act having to be rewritten and reshot.
