Michael Jackson 'Thriller' To Be Turned Into Movie

Michael Jackson's hit 'Thriller' is to be turned into a movie, according to reports.

Several Hollywood studios are said to be interested in adapting Jackson's classic 1982 single.

Deadline reports that choreographer Kenny Ortega is expected to direct, while The Hangover's Jeremy Garelick will write the screenplay.

The plot will apparently focus on the song's history, including the childhood of Vincent Price, who raps the track's voice-over.

Any film will be subject to the agreement of Michael Jackson's estate. The singer died in June 2009.

There has already been one Jackson film since his death. This Is It charted the making of his ill-fated comeback gigs.
