After the release of “Leaving Neverland”, in 2019 Michael Jackson’s estate filed a lawsuit against HBO, claiming the network had breached a “non-disparagement clause” from a 1992 contract. The agreement, which was made when HBO secured the rights to air Jackson’s concert in conjunction with his album “Dangerous”, included a stipulation that HBO would not speak negatively about Jackson. The clause also required HBO to consult with Jackson’s team if they wanted to air any additional programming related to him. The Hollywood Reporter was the first to report this.

The Jackson estate’s lawsuit highlighted the clause stating, “HBO shall not make any disparaging remarks concerning Performer or any of his representatives, agents, or business practices, or do anything that may harm or damage the reputation or public image of Performer.” The agreement also mandated that HBO notify and consult with Jackson and Optimum Productions before airing any further programming about him.
