Think you know the REAL Michael Jackson? Well, think again…

His close pal David Guest says he’s finally ready to “set the story straight” about the late singer in an explosive new film.

Speaking at the London premiere of ‘Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon,’ Guest, who produced the movie himself, told the Press Association,

"I woke up one morning and said I'm going to make a movie about Michael's life because I was tired of reading all this c*** about him, all these tales that were so fictitious, and I thought let's set the story straight but let's give the people a movie that says something new. Not the same rehash, the same moves and that's what I did."

The 149 minute clip looks back at the King of pop’s life, from his days in the Jackson 5, to his rise to stardom as a solo artist, through to his death in 2009.

It also features interviews with Jacko’s mother Katherine, his siblings Tito and Rebbie and a host of showbiz friends, including Smokey Robinson, Dionne Warwick and Whitney Houston.

‘Michael Jackson: The Life of an Icon’ will be released in Australia on DVD and Blu-ray on November 3.
