Jackson Film Sells Out Screenings Worldwide
LOS ANGELES (AP) – The Michael Jackson music documentary is selling out theaters around the world.
According to Sony Pictures, hundreds of show times have sold out since tickets went on sale Sunday for “Michael Jackson: This Is It.”
The film was built around rehearsal footage for the late singer’s planned London concerts. It opens Oct. 28 for a two-week limited run.
Advance shows in some markets the night before also are selling out. All 3,000 tickets for screenings at a Los Angeles cinema were snapped up in two hours, with some fans lining up for nearly three days.
Sony says that 30,000 tickets were sold in the first 24 hours in London, while $1 million worth of tickets were sold in Japan within the same time period.
