Paris Jackson isn’t happy with the direction her father Michael Jackson’s biopic is heading.

Paris Jackson Slammed Michael Jackson's Biopic

Paris Jackson slammed Colman Domingo's recent comments.
Paris’ blunt social media message came two days after Colman Domingo, who stars in the film as her grandfather, Joe Jackson, told a news outlet that she was supportive of the biopic.
The King of Pop’s only daughter confirmed that she had viewed an early draft of the film and wasn’t convinced after creators disregarded notes she made to the script.
“I read one of the first drafts of the script and gave my notes about what was dishonest [and] didn’t sit right with me and when they didn’t address it I moved on with my life,” she explained. “Not my monkeys, not my circus. G-- bless and godspeed.”
Paris Jackson 'Butted Out' From Production

Paris Jackson said she 'butted out' from the film's creation.
In a follow-up video, Paris explained that she was informed that her notes wouldn’t be taken into consideration, so she “just butted out and left it alone.”
“I wasn’t involved at all, aside from giving feedback on the first draft and then getting the feedback that [production] was not actually going to address your notes at all,” she explained, adding the filmmakers were “going to make whatever they’re going to make.”
She added, “A big reason why I haven’t said anything up until this point is because I know a lot of you guys are gonna be happy with it. A big section of the film panders to a very specific section of my dad’s fandom that still lives in the fantasy, and they’re gonna be happy with it.”
