Michael Jackson's This Is It is a 2009 American concert film documenting Michael Jackson's on-stage and behind-the-scenes rehearsals of the concert series of the same name scheduled to start on July 13, 2009, but canceled due to his death eighteen days prior on June 25. The film, dedicated to Jackson's three children, consists mainly of Jackson rehearsing musical numbers, with most songs compiled from footage of several rehearsals. Between songs, Jackson is shown directing and leading his team, and behind the scenes work for the concerts is shown. The film's director Ortega confirmed that when Jackson had filmed footage of himself rehearsing that he never had the intention of releasing it to the public, but after Jackson's death, it was agreed that the film be made and released for Jackson's fans. The footage was filmed at Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. Despite originally being set for October 30, the film's release date was rescheduled for October 28, 2009 due to a strong demand by Jackson's fans.
