A representative has denied that Johnny Depp or his production company, Infinitum Nihil, are involved with the forthcoming musical told from the perspective of Michael Jackson’s glove, contrary to previous reports.
A sanctioned Broadway musical surrounding Michael Jackson’s life, MJ, is also set to run next year.
According to writer Julien Nitzberg, the musical will tell the story of a group of aliens shaped like bedazzled gloves crash-landing in Gary, Indiana who find a young Michael Jackson.
The director went on to describe the musical as a “look into the strange forces that shaped Michael and the scandals that bedeviled his reputation.”
