The role of Michael Jackson in the musical went to the British Joseph Fiennes

All of us, of course, remember the twin towers and the dramatic events that took place in New York on September 11, 2001. American filmmakers took a bold and extraordinary decision to make a film about the events of this day, but not in the usual acute and sad manner, but in the form of an easy musical.

Film about the adventures of the stars

The film "Elizabeth, Michael and Marlon" will tell about the real adventures of star heroes, which unfold in parallel with the terrorist attack. Longtime friends Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando come to New York to attend the concert of the American pop king Michael Jackson and are in the thick of things. Explosions, panic and fear inspire actors to flee with him to San Francisco.

The fugitives traveled 535 miles in a rented car and the entire film was put on small amusing scenes, told by friends and assistant actors. What exactly happened on the road from New York to San Francisco, of course, we do not know, since the main characters have already passed away. Marlon Brando died at the age of 80 in July 2004, Michael Jackson in June 2009 at the age of 50, and Elizabeth Taylor in March 2011 when she was 79.

Who will play adventure friends?

The cast was approved: for the role of the light-skinned Michael Jackson, the British star Joseph Fiennes, known for the films "Kill me tenderly", "American horror story" was invited. The future performer of the role of the pop star finds the script playful and funny, "this story is about the wonderful relationships and adventures of friends," he commented.

Marlon Brando will play 69-year-old Brian Cox, known for the series "War and Peace", "Pixels", "Rise of the Planet of the Apes". The role of elderly Elizabeth Taylor will be performed by the charming actress Stockard Channing, who played in the films "Where the Heart", "Briolin".

The film's premiere is scheduled for 2016.
