He was cast as Michael Jackson in the biopic Michael after an audition process that ran for two years and considered thousands of hopefuls. The role marked his first acting job of any kind.

To prepare, he spent months in dance rehearsals studying his uncle’s choreography, vocal delivery, and interview mannerisms, working with movement coaches and the film’s creative team.

Jaafar sings in the film rather than lip-syncing to archival vocals in several sequences, a decision that drew attention once early footage began circulating.

Colman Domingo plays his on-screen father Joe Jackson in Michael, while Nia Long appears as Katherine Jackson and Miles Teller as attorney John Branca.

His casting was publicly endorsed by the Jackson family, with his father Jermaine and aunt Janet among those voicing support.
