Late pop legend Michael Jackson was planning to make a feature-length big screen version of his hit Thriller video when he died, it has been revealed.
Close friend and Jackson's comeback tour director Kenny Ortega reveals he had discussed several movie projects with the star including a Thriller movie, and a film version of Peter Allen musical Legs Diamond, reports starpulse.com.
"He told me he wanted to create a partnership with me to do films. We were talking about doing Legs Diamond. And we were talking about doing a full-length, 3-D feature of Thriller," said Ortega.
Sony Pictures boss Amy Pascal has also revealed Jackson approached her to discuss movie ideas, including a musical fantasy called Midknight and a remake of British musical, The Red Shoes, based on a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale about a 'ballet dancer whose compulsion to dance ultimately destroys any hope she once had of a normal life, leading to her tragic death'.
