Now, with the Jackson biopic Michael having grossed over $1 billion worldwide and a sequel in production, Schaffel wants the footage seen.

AI:Unreleased footage captured by producer Marc Schaffel between 2000 and 2003 has resurfaced, offering a rare look at Michael Jackson’s private life before the legal battles of 2003 upended his career.

It was run by Pat Buckley, William F.’s better half, and she kept the level exclusive and high. It celebrated artistry and beauty, and attendants paid for it with pleasure. I remember introducing the author Walter Isaacson to Cee…Open
