What happens

Man in the Mirror: The Michael Jackson Story is a 2004 biographical drama television film directed by Allan Moyle and written by Claudia Salter. It stars Flex Alexander as American pop star Michael Jackson, and follows his rise to fame and subsequent events. The film takes its title from one of Jackson's songs, "Man in the Mirror". Essentially a spiritual sequel to The Jacksons: An American Dream, which discussed the Jackson family as children and young adults, the film was primarily shot in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and aired on VH1 on August 6, 2004, six months before Jackson's criminal trial was scheduled to begin.
