Conceived as a follow-up to Halperin’s 2009 New York Times #1 best-selling book "Unmasked: The Final Years Of Michael Jackson," Gone Too Soon, a new TV Guide documentary to air on June 25th, will examine the end of music superstar Michael Jackson’s life.
The story will be told by the people who attended to him each day, including his doctors and personal help staff. In addition, Halperin goes undercover in the film with some of Jackson’s closest advisors to uncover what their secret thoughts and feelings may reveal about his untimely death. TV Guide claims this documentary is exhaustive in its research and material in an attempt to get to the real answers of what when on in the King of Pop's final days. Gone Too Soon is drawn from more than 300 hours of footage shot before and immediately following Jackson’s death. The film also includes exclusive audio and video of Jackson himself.
Coming one year to the day of his death, the subject matter inside this documentary may prove too much for some fans and friends who are still grieving. Halperin claims to have predicted Jackson's deaths six months prior to his actual demise and also spent five years researching the man behind the magic.
