Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon - official trailer launch

Not just another Michael Jackson movie, 'Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon' is the creation and brain-child of MJ's friend David Gest, who produced and narrated the documentary with unprecedented access to Michael's inner family, including interviews with his mother, Katherine.

The documentary focuses on stories from the star's closest friends and family relaying public and private memories and stories from the entertainer's life including never-before-seen family photos and performance footage. The film also looks at the difficult times during Michael's life including the moment an arrest warrant was ordered and how the molestation trial impacted all their lives in 2005.

Michael's mother Katherine says, "Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon is a truly remarkable film that captures the true character, wit and sensitivity of my son. Producer David Gest takes you on an emotional roller coaster that will bring people to tears as well as really understand who the man behind the music was and is."

Take a look at the trailer below:

The documentary will be released on DVD and Blu-ray from 31 October 2011.

I just saw the movie and i discovered some new things about him, it was such a great documentary about his life.

"Did he make mistakes ? Yes, but he did amazing things with his life."

So true. R.I.P. THE KING OF POP MJ

Michael Jackson didn't do anything wrong why was he accused of all wrong doings he didn't molest a kid he was just being nice to little kids and he wanted them to have a good childhood because as a child he didn't experience that so why are you people being so harsh and one sided? Michael would never do any harm to children! and he wasn't trying to kill his kid he was just showing it to the people what is wrong with you people! you just assume that he's always doing the wrong thing! MJ I Love U
