Michael Jackson plans to make a sequel to 'Thriller'.

The 48-year-old singer - who is currently working on a new album with Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am - is interested in making a follow-up to his worldwide hit album, which is the biggest selling record of all time.

When asked if he had thought about recording a 'Thriller' sequel, Jackson told US TV show 'Access Hollywood': "Great idea! I haven't really thought about it in that way, but I would definitely give it more thought."

The 'Bad' singer also praised Justin Timberlake and Usher for making music inspired by his own work.

He added: "I think Justin is doing a wonderful job, as well as Usher, and it's great to see. I'm inspired by what they do and I'm sure I've inspired them. It's very nice."

Jackson is currently living in the Republic of Ireland with his three children, Prince Michael, Paris and Prince Michael II.
