Michael Jackson fans, your wait to own the DVD experience of the King Of Pop's final rehearsals last summer will be over in a matter of weeks.

Today Sony Pictures Home Entertainment announced that 'Michael Jackson's This Is It' would be released in the U.S. and Canada on Blu-Ray and DVD on January 26, 2010, three months after its theatrical debut.

So far the film, directed by Kenny Ortega, has grossed over $70 million in North America and well over $220 million overseas.  'This Is It' was originally scheduled to be in theaters for just two weeks but remains in theaters in much of the U.S.
