- The Insider was on the set of the new Lifetime movie, 'Searching for Neverland,' chatting with the man who plays Michael Jackson.
I cried when I watched it, Navi did such a great job
Hailey W omg , where can you watch it at ??? I've been searching for it but all that pops up is the documentary of mj & the "this is it" behind the scenes & all that but I can't seem to find the neverland ranch movie
I cried to! I bought it on DVD and omg, I bawled at the ending!
Gabriella Maldonado you can find it online for free
Same 😭😭
Gabriella Maldonado look it up on UA-cam you’ll find it
I'm really glad that they chose Navi to play Michael. I think he did an excellent job. He truly respects him & his family ... good job Navi!
I met Navi in person and he is such a sweet guy , I believe his a great choice for the movie . Can't wait to see the movie , GO NAVI !!!!!
Although I already saw the movie, I still cannot wait for Navi to be in a future project! GO NAVI !!!
yes isnt he i met him aswell and he re,ebered when he said hello and waved to me whilst performing
He has got to be a pom (English) right? He definitely sounds it
honestly Im Happy Hes Playing Michael because He Looks Like He respects the Jackson Family and he Has. real Love for MJ ..Anyone Agree😊
Katy Rivera same but scary looking face
Katy Rivera He also used to dance with him too,so that's cool as well!!!
His face is way bigger then Michael's where as Michae'ls was delicate and much smaller~ but he seems sincere...
Katy Rivera yes I couldn't agree even more...its even canny that this gentlemen looks exactly like the real mj
+Mr King V Jackson I am so happy there's a real twin of Michael Jackson because I love him so much.
Thank you Navi for accepting the role, I cried a lot about Michael's life with his children so sad. But I salute the two bodyguards who never leave Michael during his struggled time. Rest in peace my dear Michael I know you are now in better place.
As Navi is the actor i am confident the movie will be respectfull of of MJ legacy and personality . I look forward to this .
Navi you did AWESOME in this movie
But mj did want a white actor because he is african american!
@@calebkelly7813 he wouldn't
@@calebkelly7813 but he also wouldn't care
@@jf1376 he actually said in this one interview, he talked about him being disgusted at the thought. Look it up :D
@@calebkelly7813 did not*
Navi isn't white. He's African American, and MJ said that he isn't okay with a white impersonator playing as him because that's technically canceling his race, and it hurts
I was sobbing the entire movie. Thank you Navi. You were awesome
I didn't watch the movie.
@@NellieKAdaba it's available here on youtube :)
@@geraldineakiko7009 Thanks
@@geraldineakiko7009 is it

i like the fact he's respectable towards MJ's image. and legacy. there's someone i know of, that probably is thee most only Look alike the world really never seen before. it's creepy how much he looks like him.
Samuel Pei did you see how much Barry shawn looks like Michael Jackson he have vitiligo to not AS bad but the looked almost like twins.
but sadly most of the people only she the gurls and the operated nose.
if you seen MJ by Operah he have say that he willen feel bad if some white guy played him ever.
If it's a true portrayal of MICHAEL JACKSON I'm fine with it
Rochelle Fernando exactly as long as it's a fair and balanced portrayed of Michael and the actor has good intentions with this movie then I don't see what is the big deal about it. :/ I will be watching.
I actually loved this movie. They showed Michael as a normal man who just wants to live a normal life with his family. Sometimes I think neverland was a saying that he’ll never get a normal life. So it’s neverland (never ending)
Define "true portrayal".
@@peterchavez899 very clever
He did a great job in the movie..
I was never that excited about movies about mj, but this movie is actually good. Makes sense. Good job on this one.
Only watch one biopic The Jacksons: An American Dream about MJ, but it was about him and his family, and Angela Bassett played the mother. It was alright.
I just saw it last night on Prime video. Two thumbs up for me. I cried at times. Good performance from Navi and the whole cast.
I remember Janet Jackson put hot sauce on her popcorn to in poetic justice
..what?
Yep she see sure did 😊
cushe83 lol me too
@@lululovee1905 like brother like sister
the biopic was well done and Navi really displays Michael's essence and he genuinely cares about Michael's standards and values
Anybody else want to put hot sauce on their popcorn rn?😂😂
No kidding its fire it delicious
foreal
What an amazing MOVIE!!!!!! Awesome!!!
101 skylas out of 10💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Navi really did a great job! One of the most believable portrayal of MJ and very emotional. I really love this tv movie about Michael!
CRAZY MOVIE..SAT THERE AND WATCHED IT..EVERYBODY KNEW MJ AND ALOT GREW UP ON BEAT IT THRILLER OFF THE WALL ETC..BUT THERE'S WAS ALWAYS NEGATIVE THINGS SAID ABOUT HIM TRUE OR NOT THEY RAN MJ TILL THE WHEELS FELL OFF ..LET THAT MAN'S LEGACY LIVE ON
I miss him so much. when i think aobut him i cry.
When they are in the swimming pool and then he hurt his hand it was soo sad I cried when it happend in the movie and at the end of the movie her died well in realy life navi is still alive but in movie her deid
I cried the whole movie i swear
I watched the movie as Michael Jackson fan and i didn’t even know he went though so much and the first time I watched it I cry at the end
navi is brilliant
I hope at the end of the movie MJ shows up and is like"guess who" that would be magical
I wstchec the Movie
Navis portrayal of MJ was justifiec

Navi i love you look like MJ his fans too happier to the movies help build this video world a beautiful place i watch it
Its crazy scary but he does an assume job grate work Navi love u
When it cut to the real MJ at 1:08 it took me a second to realise it wasn't Navi
I'm actually curious to see this movie
God bless him, he got emotional at the end and you can see how much he loves Michael...
i am eagerly waiting for this movie to release
May 29th.
Navi MJ thank l love you! God bless !Michael Jackson l love you so much King of POP!
ive watched the movie twice and cried both times
Yes i want to watch a movie on him that isn't offensive he's my idol and i don't want bad things to be put on tv about him
I'm so excited to see this movie
Love u mjjjjjjjj
He doesn't look just like mj but close
I watched the movie, though I like the actor who portrayed Michael Jackson I felt Michael had a more dynamic and assertive personality than was portrayed.
I met Navi last month! Amaziing person
I can't wait! I'm excited about seeing this movie even though I think they got the wrong person playing MJ.
You guys have to consider the fact that maybe E. Casanova isn't an actor, no matter how much he looks like Michael, if he's not an actor he can't play him in a movie.
ariadne he's also left handed and gained weight
is this only on America? what about latino countries? i need watch this...
Well done, Navi.
Searching For Neverland really touched my ❤ I'm sad 😭 to learn how badly Michael Jackson's life ended.
I seen the move uPlay as Mj u was great like it. I'm proud u lm Mj fan from 60 th when I was a kid 64 now. I love Mj I wish I meet him.
💖✌😎
BEST MJ ACTOR EVER
BRAVO 👏🙏
There is no actor that looks like MJ, there is no artist that moves like MJ, there is no human that feels like MJ.....I guess we should lower our expectations and just hope that the movie is respectful, and with good acting and dialogues.
I think this will be a good production because mostly everyone who was around Michael daily always speaks so highly of him and I'm sure they wouldn't portray him poorly. They also should know a lot
i think it will be a good movie, he does look like Michael but with a more Asian look. cool!
Omg going to love this movie
I can't wait to see these move 🎥
When is this airing? I want to watch!
same
Memorial Day night on Lifetime.
Funny that you said that. Reminds me of a tweet that I saw on UA-cam on that same day...from somebody ❤️.
May 29th, if it doesn't change.
Hm. Cool! I am so ready to watch this. Ready =) 📺
I might buy some popcorn & watch the movie.=) 🍿
Hello navi es muy lindo
All i know this movie better have one darn music video of mj......................
Critics are so harsh but I truly enjoyed this movie. Go Navi!
Excellent film. I really enjoyed it.
30 years??!!! Thats a long time.
hot sauce on pop corn oh lord mj :) rip sweetheart
Gona be hit this movie
He looks more like a mix of Lorde and Sofia Boutella than MJ
Eros Métis why are you people hating so much gaw give the man a break he just trying to potray like they should have been potrayed a long time ago.
Where is the Prince Rogers Nelson movie like this one?.
💔💔💔💔💔💔mi rende triste che Michael Jackson sia sparito e anche per questo ragazzo mi dispiace perché ama Michael Jackson❤❤❤❤❤❤
The only thing I see wrong with the film is Navi's constant voice switch. He goes from MJ to himself but overall its still a good one to watch
Lifetime May 29th at 8:00PM/7C
This guy looks good
If anyone to play MJ, it's gotta be his body double.
It was 16 grammy's put some respeckt on it!!!
Who is Navi dan where he from?Why he love and like MJ sssooooo much?Anybody can answer my question?
He looks like Carla Bruni.
i really dont understand why they dont pick e'casanova ,,
navi may do dance like mike but defenetly so far from the look of mike ... e'casonova for sure
mj is so cool
I honestly think E'Casanova would have been the best pick for this movie, not Navi. So sorry. But I think E'Casanova looks a whole lot like the real MJ, not Navi. Sorry guys.
Learley Wells Agreed. E'Casanova looks like Michael in the BAD era.
Learley Wells I think Navi is the only one who can act instead of impersonate .
Learley Wells But I would like to see the same Michael to play this movie. Obviously Michael created with computer technology. You know the "The Crow" movie? I mean really. If they did for The Crow movie, they can also do it for a movie about Michael. Who better than he could do it? Only him. But maybe it's too expensive to do this. 😞
Yes, I have seen the "Crow Movie" with Brandon Lee, Bruce Lee's son. I saw it. Yes! :) it was a very good movie too. But, I don't understand what you're saying MikeyBJ?? :/
Navi was chosen I would think because even Michael himself chose Navi.
Michael must have been like ''Dude...get a life o_o''
How can you copy everything from another human? I mean you can learn the good things an all, like Mike's love for children and peace but dude you just can't ACT like him and forget about your own identity??
Michael was born UNIQUE, and you've born unique as well, He had found his destiny and all the talent that God gave him and we all have to try to find our own identity. Othewise we are lost.
Meg Verstraeten Yea Mike said in a quote dogging people like this. Get your own life.
Yeah, he shall get his own life, my life is mine and original at least.
looking at the net worth of navi i don't think he is lost
SMH, Navi knows he is unique...This is what he wanted to do with his life....and if you ask me, it was a pretty good choice...Navi is amazing as a person and amazing at what he does...Michael is a big part of Navi's life, and apperantly Michael appreciated what Navi is doing!
how much is he worth?
I'm Cool/okay with NAVI
I've looked at 3 interviews about this and every time they always show that one picture....I'm sure that dosent mean be really knew him
he did work for michael and he did really meet him. he never pretended that he was friends with him.
Michael hired Navi to be his 'decoy' so that he would not always be smothered by the crowds. They would dress the same, but Navi would head out the front door of a hotel with security guards & Michael would leave by a back door with a smaller crew of security guards so as not to attract attention.
I also remember Navi performed for Michael for his Birthday, in NY & Los Angeles.
I'm not dissing this movie at all it's just I'm offended because Michael said in a interview he does not want a white person to play him he want a black person to play him in any movie. but still I cannot wait to this movie comes out
I don't want to sound Disrespectful in any way to anyone. I am glad that they are keeping Michaels Legacy alive.( BUT) there is only 1 MICHAEL we all love him and miss him greatly. But I can't seem to wonder if he was only Michael in the movie WHY? does he go on tour as MJ and sing his songs? I kinda think he's getting to comfortable playing Michael. But the sad thing is he's making money off someone that has passed away. Why NOT be yourself? Make money that way. Sing your own songs dance your own moves and and make your own style. That iminage belongs to someone already. I miss him so much also. But trying to live his life is not right.
I Really Appreciate his Acting Not Bad
I've never seen the movie is it worth watching??
Wow
😘❤😢💔
ACTUALLUY HOT SAUCE ON POPCORN IS VERY GOOD LOL
I never tried it.
es una película?
Is it going to be rated as an adult horror!!?!.....that actor is scary as hell!!!!
Stop...
Your not beautiful...
Aight?
Where is the Trailer
It will be on tv on May 29th, if that does not change. Not sure if they will give out too much of the movie. It will spoil it for people. Just keep and eye out on LifeTime, or come on UA-cam and type in Searching For NeverLand.
Navi looks NOTHING like Michael , but I think I will look at that movie 🤔
I find this pretty exciting to watch.
However, MJ would probably be rolling in his grave.
they should have got ecasanova
That's interesting MJ likes hot sauce on his popcorn too! Wow so do I been eating like that since 60s. That's weird
ilikeitto
Yes
👑😍😭❤🇧🇷
I know people who like hot sauce on their popcorn
Why is he in character for this interview?
BAVER OTRA PELÍCULA DE MJ JACKSON DE NEVERLAND
