Michael Jackson's sons Bigi and Prince made a rare red carpet appearance at the Berlin premiere of their late father's new biopic on April 17. The duo were joined by other members of their family, including Jermaine and Randy, however their sister, Paris, was noticeably absent.

Bigi was the late pop icon's twin in a sleek black suit that was styled with a crisp white shirt. The outfit was a striking departure from his everyday attire, with the 24-year-old typically wearing simple T-shirts and shorts.

Meanwhile, Prince donned a suave black suit with a striking red shirt and matching black tie. Both Bigi and Prince wore a red armband, a subtle symbol Michael frequently used to show his support for disadvantaged children. The armband also included an illustration of their father’s feet, captured in his signature pose.

"The film presents his triumphs and tragedies on an epic, cinematic scale — from his human side and personal struggles to his undeniable creative genius, exemplified by his most iconic performances," the synopsis of the film reads.

"As never before, audiences will experience an inside look into one of the most influential, trailblazing artists the world has ever known."

The film stars Jaafar Jeremiah Jackson, Michael's nephew and the son of Jermaine Jackson. The film's release was delayed several times, and is set to drop in April 2026. Joining Jaafar onscreen is Colman Domingo as Michael's father, Joe Jackson, Nia Long as his mother, Katherine, and Kat Graham as Diana Ross.

Bigi, who changed his name from Blanket in 2015, was born via surrogate in 2002, and his mother's identity was never revealed. While he typically keeps a low profile, he gave a rare interview in 2021, where he discussed climate change advocacy. "That's what each of us [siblings] want to do – make things that people enjoy but also benefit their lives," he said on Good Morning Britain.

"I do think it's important we all know about [climate change]. We have some work to do, but our generation knows how important it is."

Prince is Michael's first child with ex-wife Debbie Rowe. Reflecting on his father's legacy, Prince previously told Entertainment Tonight, "I would like to think that he would be very proud because I think this was one of his main goals, was not only to spread his message of positivity and happiness but to see it enacted in his kids."
