The documentary will also look into Jackson’s record-breaking world tour and features interviews with people like Sheryl Crow who he worked and sang alongside Jackson during the late 80s.

Lee says, “I’m more than just a huge fan of Michael Jackson, and having the chance to actually know him and work with him, I deeply care about his legacy. With this Bad project I was able to uncover just what made this such a huge, important coming of age in his career and unearth compelling stories surrounding the making of the album, the long awaited follow-up to Thriller — the best selling album of all time — the short films and the tour that may have never seen the light of day.”
