Just when you thought he had milked the cash cow dry, Michael Jackson has gone and moon-walked his macabre masterpiece one step further.

That’s right, Thriller‘s going to Broadway.

Netherlands producer James L. Nederlander has purchased the rights to recreate the love-story-gone-awry from Jackson’s popular video of the same name, and plans on bringing it to the Theatre District once a script is finalized. Along with the title track, the production will include songs from Jackson’s Quincy Jones-produced classic, along with a few from it’s predecessor, Off The Wall.

“I love the idea of making “Thriller” a musical. Girl meets boy, they fall in love, boy has big secret, now what?” Nederlander told Associated Press.

If you’re not intrigued by the Dutchman’s sentiment, the secret has been out of the bag for quite some time now, here’s where this gets interesting.

Aside from reaping the benefits from the sale, The King of Pop has come from behind his mask to exclusively authorize the play, and according to Billboard.com, “Jackson will participate in every aspect of the creative process.”

After he helmed the 25th anniversary of his timeless album only a year ago and the butchering that ensued, let’s hope that Michael has enough sense not to ruin one the legacy of one of the most beloved music videos of all time.

Then again, the man does have some issues.
