Michael Jackson could have been in The Great Mouse Detective

The Great Mouse Detective is one of my favourite Disney movie. I know, this is an unusual one to say!

The movie was released in 1986 and had Vincent Price doing the villain’s voice of Professor Ratigan.

During the process, Michael Eisner was considering Michael Jackson to play a small role and sing a song.

Michael was supposed to play a character who would enter the saloon, confront Basil, and sing a song at the tavern, but the suggestion was met with uncomfortable silence for which Eisner withdrew the idea; Eisner later proposed for Madonna to perform the song. Eventually, Melissa Manchester was brought in; she wrote and performed “Let Me Be Good to You”, by which the rough animation had to be re-timed and often re-animated to properly sync with the song.

The soundtrack only came out in 1992 as Michael Jackson was still considered for a song but it never came to life!

Can you imagine what it could have been?
