Glee pay tribute to Jackson's Thriller

The cast of the hit TV musical Glee have paid tribute to Michael Jackson by recreating his iconic Thriller video for an upcoming episode.

Dianna Agron, Amber Riley and Kevin McHale were among the stars of the popular show who dressed up as zombies for the remake of the pop classic during a late-night shoot on a school football field in Los Angeles last Friday.

The actors were joined by a marching band as they replicated the dance moves made famous in the 1983 music video.

The shoot will be part of the Glee Super Bowl episode, which will air after the annual American football championships on February 6.

Gwyneth Paltrow is also set to make an appearance on the special.
