The first trailer for the upcoming Leaving Neverland documentary, which follows two adult accusers, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, as they recount childhood abuse they claim to have suffered at the hands of Michael Jackson was released on Tuesday.
“I was 7 years old. Michael asked, ‘Do you and the family want to come to Neverland?'” dancer and choreographer Robson says at one point in the preview. His mother, Joy Robson, adds, “We drive in and you forget about all your problems. You’re in Neverland. It was a fantasy.”
Wade’s mother, Joy, stated, “Jackson just came across as a loving, caring, kind soul.” She adds, “It was easy to believe that he was just that.”
Part one of Leaving Neverland will air on Sunday, March 3, on HBO, with the second part following on Monday, March 4.
