Valdi in Michael Jackson’s biopic
Lionsgate announced that 10-year-old Valdi will portray a young Jackson. The director of the biopic Antoine Fuqua confirmed the casting of Valdi. In an interview with Variety, he said, “If anything, casting the role of the young Michael was more difficult than casting the adult role because where do you find a child actor with the chops of the greatest entertainer who ever lived? In the end, that was our focus – talent – and we looked far and wide for an actor who could embody Michael’s spirit through his voice, his charisma, and his dance skills. Juliano’s undeniable, raw talent put him at the top of our list.”
“This opportunity is really important to me because MJ is the King of Pop, and he is very special in my heart. I’ve been dancing to his songs for five years now. He makes me feel really special and makes me feel good about myself. I love the energy of Michael Jackson,” Valdi said in a statement.
