Film maker Spike Lee is producing a documentary about Michael Jackson that has never before seen footage of the late music icon.

"We have footage in this documentary that no one's ever seen, stuff that Michael shot himself, behind-the-scenes stuff," Lee said.

"We had complete access to the vaults of Michael Jackson. ... He wrote 60 demos for the Bad record. Only 11 made it. So we got to hear a lot of that stuff, too, so it was just a great experience ... You don't have to be a Michael Jackson-head to enjoy this."

Lee directed the posthumous "This Is It" video and is producing the documentary for the  twenty-fifth anniversary re-release of the multi-platinum selling "Bad" album.
