A really interesting part of the whole campaign for me is just how softball like the promotions has been around this film.
You would think this is an opportunity for some of the cast, some of the respected cast like Coleman, Domingo, and Nia Long to really sit down with mass media news outlets and engage.
You'd expect a lot of glossy magazine covers.
The executors of this estate are two lawyers named John McClain and John Branca.
They took over the Jackson estate after he died.
It's just unbelievable.
Michael Jackson sells more tickets dead than most artists do alive.
That is absolutely true.
Part of why John Branca specifically is a notable figure is he's been Jackson's attorney since the 80s.
He shepherded Jackson to buy the Beatles catalogue in the 1980s, which was a huge source of his income.
Him and Jackson had a rocky relationship, but John Branca came back into the picture around This Is It, the Jackson documentary released shortly after Jackson's
his death, showing Jackson.
Yeah, this was the concert film.
So he was scheduled to do this run of, I believe, 50 shows at the O2 in London.
And that was going to be his big return to the stage.
This is it.
I mean, this is really it.
This is the final, this is the final curtain call.
He died two weeks before those concerts were scheduled to start.
But This Is It was shepherded by John Branca into a very timely release in cinemas for a public that is still grieving Jackson and Jackson.
