Colman Domingo is making moves off-screen ... 'cause TMZ has learned he's sold his Los Angeles-area home for a couple million.

Sources familiar with the sale tell TMZ ... the deal closed Wednesday for $2,135,000. Domingo, who plays Joe Jackson in film "Michael," bought the 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom home back in October 2018.

The home, known as The Hofkin Residence, is a 1964 Mid-Century Modern. The gated single-story estate was recently featured in Architectural Digest.

The actor has been hospitalized in L.A., on life support now for more than a week ... after he was initially admitted for meningitis, which the family says he had been fighting for more than a year -- after numerous misdiagnoses.

In a video posted to social media, Lilly says she reached out to her friend -- who helped bring her character's superhero costume to life, she says -- about the firings and a pivot toward A.I. ... and, she says Park confirmed her worst fears.

Michael Jackson's pet chimp Bubbles is still living his best life at the Center for Great Apes ... but the sanctuary's had it with the internet running wild with the A.I.-created buzz tied to the late icon's biopic "Michael."

The Wauchula, Florida-based sanctuary released a statement obtained by TMZ on Tuesday ... saying those viral pics of MJ's nephew Jaafar Jackson hanging out with Bubbles are fake -- not real, never happened. They add Jaafar's never even visited ... though the invite's technically open.

The sanctuary made it crystal clear -- they're legit, accredited, and not in the business of turning their animals into meet-and-greets. No touching, no interactions ... their chimps and orangutans stay protected within secure habitats.

Canadian actress Sugar Lyn Beard was in her early 30s when she played Jeanie -- the sweet, bride-to-be -- in the rom-com "Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates" back in 2016.

Beard was part of a noteworthy cast including Adam DeVine, Zac Efron, Anna Kendrick, and Aubrey Plaza.

John Branca is all smiles over the "Michael" biopic -- especially when it comes to Miles Teller playing ... well, him.

Donnell Rawlings is standing firmly in Michael Jackson’s corner ... telling us the filmmakers were right to reportedly spend millions reworking the upcoming biopic to remove references to abuse allegations.

Check out the clip ... we caught up with the comedian over the weekend and asked whether the reported $25M overhaul to reshoot the third act -- which featured sexual abuse allegations against the pop star -- was the right move ... and Donnell didn’t hesitate to give his POV.

He pointed to the fact Michael was acquitted in his 2005 criminal trial and said the allegations ultimately amounted to “speculation” ... adding the movie shouldn’t tarnish the King of Pop’s legacy by ending on accusations instead of his contributions to music and the world.

Donnell told us people should remember Michael for “healing the world” and being “the greatest performer that we’ve ever seen” ... making it crystal clear where he stands on the controversy.

Marvel Comics writer and former Editor-in-Chief Gerry Conway -- who co-created "The Punisher" -- has died at age 73.

Marvel posted the news on Monday ... but it is not clear when Conway died, or how.

Dan Buckley, President of Marvel Comics and Franchise, said in a statement ... "Gerry Conway was a gifted writer. He was thoughtful, deeply attuned to the emotional and moral core of storytelling, and a wonderful and articulate advocate for comics and creators. His writing has inspired all of us at Marvel, and will continue to inspire generations of writers, readers and fans to come."

Of all the contributions he made to the stories of iconic Marvel characters ... he is best known for co-creating the anti-hero character The Punisher. Currently, Jon Bernthal plays the fan-favorite character both on the Marvel TV series and in the upcoming movie "Spider-Man: Brand New Day."

The legendary writer is survived by his wife, Laura Conway.

Marvel extended its deepest sympathies to Conway's family, friends, and fans around the world.

He was 73.

James Safechuck -- one of Michael Jackson's sexual assault accusers -- says there's no way he's going to watch the new biopic about the King of Pop ... and he doesn't think it should have been produced in the first place.

A photog got Safechuck in Sherman Oaks over the weekend and asked him if he planned to go check out "Michael" on opening weekend ... and Safechuck gave an emphatic "no."
