LOS ANGELES (AP) --
Michael Jackson's estate and IMAX are partnering to digitally remaster "Michael Jackson's Thriller 3D" into IMAX 3D.
The partnership was announced Wednesday, which would have been the singer's 60th birthday. It will be released in IMAX theaters across the U.S. for one week, beginning Sept. 21.
The estate's co-executors say Jackson loved to give his fans the "latest and greatest in technology and entertainment experiences."
The short film, directed by John Landis, premiered in Los Angeles in 1983. The 3D version was first shown at the 74th Venice Film Festival in 2017.
The remastered release precedes the launch of Amblin Entertainment's fantasy film, "The House with a Clock in Its Walls," starring Jack Black and Cate Blanchett.
Jackson was 50 years old when he died in June 2009.

An audience of 8.7 million viewers watched the Golden Globes on Sunday, according to Nielsen, a decline of almost 7% from the year prior.
Sunday's telecast on CBS, hosted by Nikki Glaser, didn't quite reach the viewership levels of the two previous Globes on CBS. In the network's first year with the award show, the broadcast was watched by 9.4 million. Last year, 9.3 million tuned in to the show, also hosted by Glaser.
CBS and the Golden Globes in 2024 signed a five-year deal to broadcast the annual ceremony following years on NBC. After a diversity and ethics scandal led NBC to drop the Globes, the show was sold to the Penske Media-owned Dick Clark Productions and Todd Boehly's Eldridge Industries. Back in the late 2010s, the Globes typically drew close to 20 million viewers.
On Sunday night, when "One Battle After Another" and "Hamnet" took top honors, many more were watching football. NBC's telecast of the Chargers-Patriots playoff game averaged 28.9 million viewers, according to Nielsen.
CBS touted social engagement for the Globes, calling it the "most social ever," with 42 million interactions (up 5% from the year before), according to Social Content Ratings. More than 14 million watched Glaser's monologue across Globes social platforms in the first 36 hours.
Paramount Skydance, CBS' parent company, on Monday filed a lawsuit against Warner Bros. Discovery and chief executive David Zaslav as part of its hostile takeover bid for the studio. Last week, Warner Bros. Discovery's board determined Paramount's offer is not in the best interests of the company or its shareholders, and it again recommended shareholders support the Netflix deal.
