"The Michael Jackson Estate has settled a lawsuit with an actress who starred in his &amp;#039;Thriller&amp;#039; music video. Actress Ola Ray played the role of the late singer&amp;#039;s love interest in the film. She sued Jackson&amp;#039;s production company in May 2009 - the month before he died - claiming she hadn&amp;#039;t been paid royalties for the short film which accompanied his track in 1983. Ray - who is a former Playboy Playmate - filed the case stating a breach of contract, saying that she was still owed a large sum for her work on the successful clip.  Details of the settlement have not been made public. The actress&amp;#039;s legal representative previously said that Ray was not sure how much she is owed by Jackson&amp;#039;s estate, but that her accountants were working the amount out. &amp;#039;Thriller&amp;#039; director John Landis has also filed a similar lawsuit against Jackson&amp;#039;s estate. However, TMZ reports that Landis and the estate are currently trying to work out an agreement. &amp;#039;Thriller&amp;#039; was named the most influential video in pop music history by a MySpace poll two years ago, and topped a Billboard poll of favourite pop videos from the 1980s last August.
