Jacko Rehearsal Footage: Sale Near
AEG Entertainment is close to selling over 80 hours of Michael Jackson rehearsal footage to Sony Pictures, which will shape it to a feature film that will be released before the end of the year. The material, expected to be purchased for more than $50 million, also includes three videos, one an alternate version of “Thriller,” that were to be shown during the London shows. High School Musical’s Kenny Ortega, who shot the videos, is directing the film. At last: Ortega will be allowed to prove he can make money without Zac Efron.
