An auction of film rights to the rehearsal footage of Michael Jackson’s “This is It” tour is underway, and Jackson’s family won’t have a substantive say in where the footage lands.

Concert promoter AEG was still negotiating with studios at press time, but bids for the movie rights were at a reported $50 million and television rights at $10 million, according to Deadline Hollywood Daily.
