Midnight screenings for This Is It earned an impressive $2.2 million dollars, setting up what was to be a big opening day for the film.

But it isn’t just the movie that is making money for Michael Jackson’s estate. According to Forbes, the late King of Pop has grossed $90 million since his death thanks to “royalties from album sales, radio play, rights to his name and likeness and royalties from his stake in the Sony/ATV music catalog.”

Experts project This Is It to take between $80 million and $100 million dollars in its first full week.
