This Is It, a documentary culled from more than 80 hours of rehearsal and behind-the-scenes footage of legendary pop singer Michael Jackson, is releasing worldwide today (October 28). The film opens in multiplexes across India with over 150 prints.
The majority of the footage was captured in high definition with digital sound during June at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, California, and The Forum in Inglewood, California, when the late singer was preparing for a series of 50 ’This Is It’ concerts planned to be presented at the O2 Arena in London.
Sony Pictures Entertainment and Sony Music Entertainment recently bagged the screening right of This Is It by paying Jackson’s estate and AEG Live at least $60 million. The proceeds that the estate earns from the film’s release will benefit the Michael Jackson Family Trust.
