Why didn't Michael Jackson act more?
Now I have a very soft spot for the Wiz but I know that for many the reviews are mixed at best
But it seems that even those who didn't like it at all agree that Michael's performance was far and away the best thing about it
Anyone know why he didn't pursue more acting opportunities?
I know he really wanted to play Peter Pan and there was some semi serious consideration from Steven Spielberg for what eventually turned into Hook
It seems that after Thriller and Bad and especially after Purple Rain was such a hit he could have had some vehicle for him greenlit
Even an animated special inspired his drawings [[which I always thought were very good), add a new MJ song or 2 and it would have been ratings gold
