American media personality, Oprah Winfrey is set to interview the two men – Wade Robson and James Safechuck – who say they were abused by Michael Jackson as children.

Winfrey will also interview “Leaving Neverland” director Dan Reed on “Oprah Winfrey Presents: After Neverland,” which is set to air on HBO and the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) on Monday, March 4.

The two-part, four-hour film – “Leaving Neverland” – follows the relationships that Jackson formed with 10-year-old Safechuck and 7-year-old Robson.

Leaving Neverland airs on HBO on March 3 and 4.

The documentary debuted at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. Since its debut, the Jackson Estate has issued multiple statements denouncing its contents, describing the alleged victims as “perjurers” and the documentary as “sensationalist.”

The estate has also filed a lawsuit against HBO. In addition, members of the Jackson Family appeared on “CBS to criticize the documentary.

Dan Reed has responded to criticism from the estate, stating that the Jackson family’s claims “are not consistent with having watched the movie.”
