Michael Jackson's 'Thriller's short film is all set to release in 3D in 2015, it has been revealed.

John Landis, who directed the 14 minute 1983 short video, is working on the project after settling all the legal estate disputes, the New York Daily News reported.

Landis asserted that lawsuit went on for so many years, but they settled and they paid him finally and therefore, there was something happening with 'Thriller.'

An insider said that the estate had been looking at gaming ideas, too, and 'Thriller' fits into the genre.

The budget for the 3D release is reportedly set at 500,000 dollars that is more than 10 times the cost of the average video in 1983.
