For the past several days, I have watched the reaction to Netflix's documentary about Michael Jackson and his 2005 criminal trial. I understand the anger. I understand the suspicion. I understand why fans feel protective.

For millions of Michael Jackson fans, McClain was one of the key figures responsible for preserving and expanding the King of Pop’s legacy after he died in 2009. Alongside attorney John Branca, McClain served as co-executor of Jackson’s estate, overseeing one of the most remarkable financial turnarounds in entertainment history.

“After the opening weekend, seeing the reaction around the world, on social media, and at the box office, we realized this was going to be something very special,” longtime Jackson attorney and estate co-executor John Branca told Black Press Media USA in an exclusive interview.

The Michael Jackson biopic returned to the No. 1 spot at the domestic box office this weekend, overtaking “The Devil Wears Prada 2” after regaining IMAX and premium large-format screens and benefiting from unusually strong repeat business from fans who continue filling theaters weeks after the film’s release.

While a California judge ordered $625,000 in attorney bonuses returned to the estate, the same ruling opened the door for Paris’ lawyers to seek substantial legal fees of their own after years of litigation that has already cost the estate millions. In the end, the only people guaranteed to walk away richer may be the attorneys billing by the hour.

When it comes to Michael Jackson, America has buried him, resurrected him, accused him, acquitted him, mocked him, studied him, danced to him, stolen from him, and now once again made him the center of popular culture.

A resurfaced private call from Michael Jackson at 34 years old that’s trending on social media is saying something else.

Michael Jackson fans got the last laugh at critics who panned the exceptional biopic about the late King of Pop as they flooded theaters across the globe, many wearing their idol's trademark white and sequined glove, fedora hats, black pants, and white socks.

And the family’s presence behind the scenes matters—four of Jackson’s brothers, including the late Tito, and Michael’s son Prince, serve as executive producers. By the end, you’re not thinking about what’s missing. You’re thinking about the music. The movement. The feeling.

And increasingly, those watching closely are asking whether Paris Jackson is at the center of it or being pulled deeper into it.
