Actor Joseph Fiennes expressed regret for his decision to play Michael Jackson in an episode of the anthology series "Urban Myths" in a recent interview with The Guardian. The episode, which was about Jackson, Marlon Brando, and Elizabeth Taylor taking a cross-country road trip after 9/11, was pulled before it aired due to backlash over Fiennes' casting. Fiennes took partial credit for the decision to pull the episode and acknowledged that it was a "bad call" and a "bad mistake."
