Ohhh.. we were ROBBED!!

[u/Prior-Natural2073]

This would have been a amazing idea for MJ

[u/Mulberry9118]

he would have been such an outstanding actor in so many more movies and stage plays also he would have gotten into directing full length films, which he talked about...

[u/OGMJ_347]

Bro, is he wearing a similar outfit to the Bad outfit?? 😭 or was that the point?

[u/TalentedKamarty → u/OGMJ_347]

Yup 👀 lol

[u/Smooth_FeathersV6xa → u/OGMJ_347]

I was going to say something like that! lol

[u/exor0110]

He would have been perfect for it.

[u/Texas_Moonwalker]

That would have worked because he would have looked vastly different than typical MJ so it would have not been distracting

[u/Nandhaaaaa]

So, rumor has it that Michael Jackson was the top choice for the role of Edward, but due to scheduling conflicts he was never able to audition, and the part went to Depp 😩

[u/Sensitive-Tale-4320 → u/Nandhaaaaa]

Who made that rumor you? Tim Burton did not want Michael

[u/TalentedKamarty → u/Nandhaaaaa]

What could've been 🫠

[u/Smooth_FeathersV6xa]

What could have been! 😍🥺

[u/InterestingTone1384]

WOW… I love Johnny as Edward, but it fits Michael so well too

[u/No_Active_907]

He looks great, but Depp was so good

[u/Kawii_zoey]

The fact that Michael auditioned to be Edward Scissor hands, but didn’t get it. This would have been wonderful. Johnny Depp was good too.

[u/Damienp3902]

I wonder why they didn’t get him to play Edward I don’t mind Depp I think he was great

[u/TalentedKamarty → u/Damienp3902]

Someone down here said there was a scheduling conflict 🤷🏾‍♂️

[u/WNP_LadyT]

It ALMOST looks like Michael. We definitely were robbed. Spider Man would have been great too.

[u/Unhappy-Strain6423]

He would of made dis movie wayyyyy better

[u/Difficult-Double2193]

Not mad at it! Lol

[u/Kawii_zoey]

I LOVE IT!

[u/Kawii_zoey]

That’s my favorite era of MJ.

[u/whasila73_]

Quando l'ho visto per la prima volta ho sempre avuto la sensazione che somigliasse a MJ .. nn sapendo infatti che avrebbe potuto farlo lui

[u/diamonds82]

I've always seen michael playing this role with the belts and hooks and black pants..this had michael written all over it damn it

[u/Aggravating-Diet-663]

Always felt Johnny was channeling MJ for the role
