Michael Jackson’s iconic 14-minute music video for ‘Thriller’ will be revived next year in 3-D. 

The music video’s director, John Landis, has now settled a legal dispute with jackson’s estate and hopes to release the video on Blu-ray and possibly even in cinemas, according to the New York Daily News.

The video, which was the most expensive clip of its time, caused legal tension between Landis and the singer as Landis was seeking 50 percent of the net profits of the video about six months before Jackson’s untimely death in 2009.

‘Thriller’ might have gotten the 3-D Treatment were the popstar still alive, however. A source told the Daily News that Jackson had hopes to include a 3-D version of the music video as part of ‘This Is It’ London residency.

Landis spoke of the end of the lawsuit and said: “That lawsuit went on for so many years, (but) we settled and they paid me finally. And so, actually there is something happening with Thriller.”
