For the few people who have no clue, I will be more specific: “This is it” was supposed to be the King of Pop’s last shows on stage, as an entertainer, a series of 50 concerts in London, “the final curtain call” as Michael announced. But as the Nature didn’t agree with MJ’s wish, “This is it” is going to be a movie based on 80 hours of MJ’s last show rehearsal and footage behind the scenes.

The movie will be released in October 30 and you can watch it in the cinemas all over the World.

If you want to watch it at home you must wait until 2010, when it will probably be launched on DVD and Blu-ray Disc.

The film which will be released in less than two mounts is produced by Sony Music Entertainment and Sony Pictures.  Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge, Mitchell Beckloff announced the court’ authorization for Sony to edit the “rehearsal tape”. The negotiation between Sony and Michael Jackson Estate and AEG Live (the producer of the London concert series) for the taped rehearsal rights would be at least USD 60 M and after Sony covers the cost of making the movie, the rest of the movie’s revenues would be split between the 3 companies via a complex formula.

Kenny Ortega, the director of the London’s concert series, will also direct the movie, as his representatives at Paradigm Talent Agency confirmed. Ortega, who also directed “High School Musical”, said “The world will see what our team was so fortunate to experience, which was the full commitment, passion and creativity that Michael put into the project”.

The rehearsal was taped in HD quality and in the movie it is used the greatest IT equipment, all of this in order for the public to see magic effects, just how the King of Pop deserves. The movie’s trial has already been shown to the public, yesterday, at Video Music Awards in New York.
