Michael Jackson could earn more than $400m (£283m) from a comeback deal involving new music and movies as well as concerts, his promoter has revealed.
The pop superstar has announced 10 gigs at the O2 arena in London this summer.
Randy Phillips, head of AEG Live, which is staging the gigs, said they had a wider deal that could cover a world tour and a 3D film based on Thriller.
He also said: "We're talking to him about helping him figure a new plan for the release of singles, new music."
Last tour
Jackson appeared at the London venue on Thursday to announce his comeback concerts.
He billed them as "the final curtain call" and "my final show performances in London".
Has anyone seen the latest footage of Jackson on the news? I'm not sure he'll be seeing the success his promoters are looking for. Still if the grown men seen crying in the crowd are anything to go by then who knows!
