Michael “M.J.” Jackson – Screenwriter
Michael Jackson is a native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Michael’s initial entertainment career started with stand-up comedy. Michael always had a passion for entertainment and relished studying influential artists including Orson Welles, Martin Scorcese and Spike Lee.
In addition, Michael also geared his talents toward directing music videos for independent labels. After seeing the movie Reservoir Dogs directed by Quentin Tarantino, he started to write scripts and it was during that time, he became passionately focussed on screenwriting.
Upon a chance, once in a lifetime meeting, Michael Jackson met with Ving Rhames to discuss a project he had written titled Selling God. To say the meeting was a highlight in Michael Jackson’s life is an incredible understatement. Michael’s storyline was edited with producer Domenic Serafino and the feature film project Saving God was created.
Michael comments “Ving Rhames has been a big part of my success and he truly is a special person. There’s nothing better than having your thoughts turned into words and then having an actor bring those words and thoughts to life.” |
