The highly anticipated biopic 'Michael,' directed by Antoine Fuqua, has recently cast Laura Harrier in a significant role. Harrier, known for her roles in 'BlacKkKlansman' and 'Spider-man: Homecoming,' will portray the influential music executive Suzanne de Passe in this Lionsgate production.
De Passe, who served as a creative assistant to Motown founder Berry Gordy, played a pivotal role in signing The Jackson 5 to the label. She not only styled the iconic family group in their early days but also facilitated their appearances on live television, along with other Motown acts. De Passe maintained a close relationship with Michael Jackson from his childhood, guiding him through the complexities of the music industry.
