Michael B Jordan’s Brother Khalid Jordan Works in the Entertainment Industry

Khalid Jordan is Michael B. Jordan’s brother. The “Black Panther” star’s brother has also pursued a career in the film industry, much like their older sister. Khalil is a Howard University alumni who went on to work for BET, Mass Appeal, and various other Viacom businesses.

Michael B. Jordan is the middle child of Donna Jordan and Michael A. Jordan. He has a younger brother named Khalil Jordan and an older sister named Jamilia Jordan. All three siblings have made a mark on the American film industry, and Khalil has collaborated with Michael through Macro Television Studios.

Khalil has a solid educational background that Link Education Partners influenced. He participated in sports during high school and earned an athletic scholarship at Howard University.

Michael B Jordan’s Brother Was an Athlete in School

Khalid posted a picture in October 2021 celebrating his 29th birthday; so likely to have been born in October 1992. His mother, Donna, was a high school counselor, and his brother Michael B. was named after their father, Michael A. Jordan.

Khalid completed his middle school education at Link Community Charter School before attending Science Park High School in his first year of high school. The following year, he enrolled at Arts High School in Newark, where he graduated and majored in Television Production. He also played football for Malcolm X. Shabazz High School.

His applaudable performances earned him an athletic scholarship to play for Washington D.C.’s Howard University. The Howard alum scored many internships that placed him in companies like Sesame Workshop, various Viacom establishments, and BET in the United States’ capital and New York City.

Khalid’s educational foundation strengthened when he attended Link Community Charter School. The school is part of Link Education Partners’ organization which is a collaborative effort by NPOs, religious parties, and generous members of the community. The organization was launched in 1969 to obtain social justice.

In the build-up to Marvel’s flagship film “Black Panther,” Khalid’s brother, who stars alongside the ever-so-private Lupita Nyong’o, answered 73 questions from Vogue. The questioner mentioned Khalid and his brother reacted “extremely loyal.” The movie star also confirmed his family would have no Michael C. Jordan.

The 73 Questions interview shows Michael B. walking through his home, getting ready to head out for some social time with his friends. The interview has been viewed over 15 million times since its release — a fitting result for a superstar of his caliber on a colossal platform like Vogue.

Khalid Jordan Works for a Television Studio

After graduating from Washington University and completing multiple internships, Khalid moved to California to pursue a career in the state’s lively entertainment industry. The talent agency William Morris Endeavor gave him his first job, serving in the agency’s mail room. He then spent almost four years in the Television Literary and Digital division.

Khalid also served as a manager at the urban media company Mass Appeal and as a creative development executive at Warner Brothers Television. His IMDb profile reveals that he was one of five hired by Macro Television Studios in executive positions, becoming a development director along with Ahmadou Seck.

Macro, formed in 2015, aims to amplify the voice of people of color in the media. The multimedia company boats 16 film projects, comprising award-winning feature films and TV shows. Khalid’s brother Michael B. is the protagonist of Macro’s film, “Just Mercy,” with the multi-talented entertainer who endured an onerous childhood, Jamie Foxx.

Khalid Jordan Realized That He Had Changed

Unlike his brother, Khalid leads a largely private life. He owns an Instagram account that hosts 38 posts as of this writing; however, the account does not reveal details about his life. His social media content is centered on his international travels and vacations, combined with pictures of himself.

At the end of December 2019, Khalid reflected on his growth over the years and confirmed that his mother projected everything that was unfolding in his life. Khalil spoke about how he was no longer the same person he was growing up and added that, in hindsight, he understood why he felt uncomfortable trying to live up to people’s expectations.

Khalil does not let his private lifestyle keep him from appearing at public events. In 2017, he attended the Lupus LA MBJAM with his family. On January 26, 2020, he attended the Sundance Film festival at Temple Theater and made his presence felt two years later at a Key TV Launch party at The Millwick in Los Angeles.
