Posted on Tue Oct 6, 2009 08:56 AM PDT
Chinese fans will get to see the last footage of Michael Jackson at the same time as the rest of us now that Chinese censors have approved This Is It in time for it's global release date of October 28th.
Sony Pictures execs told The AP that the film won one of the last slots that China awards to foreign releases, which is only 20 films annually.
Li Chow, Sony Pictures Releasing International’s general manager for China said that they intend on giving it as large a release as possible in the country, to account for Jackson's overwhelming fan base there.
“We’ll do as many prints as possible. It depends on the labs,” Li said.
As of last year, China had about 4,100 screens. It's likely that an enormous amount of those will be showing This Is It when the film's released later this month.
