Leaving Neverland II Premieres March 18, 2025

The sequel to the controversial documentary 'Leaving Neverland,' titled 'Leaving Neverland II: Surviving Michael Jackson,' is set to air on Channel 4 in the UK on March 18, 2025. Directed by Dan Reed, the film will continue to follow accusers James Safechuck and Wade Robson as they seek justice for their claims of childhood sexual abuse by Michael Jackson. The hour-long documentary will explore the personal and professional toll of going public with their allegations, as well as the backlash they faced from Jackson's fans and estate. HBO, which produced the original documentary, is not involved in the sequel due to a legal battle with Jackson's estate over a breach of a non-disparagement clause. The film will also document the legal proceedings Safechuck and Robson are involved in, detailing how MJJ Productions and MJJ Ventures attempted to prevent their cases from reaching court. This sequel aims to complete the 'Leaving Neverland' trilogy by covering the ongoing legal battles and their impact on the entertainment industry.
