Joseph Fiennes to play MJ in upcoming flick on 9/11

Washington : British actor Joseph Fiennes is all set to portray Michael Jackson in his upcoming flick.

The 45-year-old actor will portray the pop-star in the upcoming film based on an alleged road trip following the 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, reports People Magazine.

The King of Pop reportedly drove from the Empire State to Ohio, along with friends Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando, in an attempt to make it back to California.

However, an assistant for Elizabeth Taylor said that the actress was not there for the trip; rather she chose to stay in New York visiting Ground Zero and praying for the victims. (ANI)
