Leaving Neverland 2: Surviving Michael Jackson is the long awaited follow up to the 2019 documentary Leaving Neverland. The new doc picks up on the stories of Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who allege that Jackson sexually abused them when they were aged seven and 11.

Six years on from the original, Robson and Safechuck have been subject to abuse and a major backlash from Jackson's loyal fanbase. The film focuses on their ongoing legal battle with Jackson's estate and the personal toll that revealing the accusations has had on both of them.

Unlike the original, HBO is not on board this time due to ongoing litigation from the Jackson estate. However, the producers have teamed up with Little Dot Studios' Real Stories YouTube channel to show the film in the US.

This is it: the new Michael Jackson doc is here! Keep reading as we explain how to watch Leaving Neverland 2 online from absolutely anywhere and for free in the UK.
