Bill Bray (1925–2005) was Michael Jackson’s loyal head of security and a trusted mentor from the early Motown days until 1996. As a former police officer, Bray provided constant protection, becoming a "second father" figure to Jackson. He appeared in several short films, including Smooth Criminal.

The film stars Michael's real-life nephew, Jaafar Jackson as Michael, Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Juliano Krue Valdi, Kat Graham, Larenz Tate, Derek Luke, Jessica Sula, with Miles Teller, and Colman Domingo as his father Joe Jackson
Michael is the cinematic portrayal of the life and legacy of one of the most influential artists the world has ever known. The film tells the story of Michael Jackson's (starring his cousin Jaafar Jackson) life beyond the music, tracing his journey from the discovery of his extraordinary talent as the lead of the Jackson Five, to the visionary artist whose creative ambition fueled a relentless pursuit to become the biggest entertainer in the world. Highlighting both his life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career, the film gives audiences a front-row seat to Michael Jackson as never before.
