Michael Tops Global Box Office as Highest-Grossing Music Biography
The film Michael has become the highest-grossing music biography of all time with a worldwide box office of $911.9 million. Figures confirmed by Lionsgate show the film achieved strong commercial success despite negative reviews.
Michael has reached $911.9 million worldwide, securing the top spot among music biographies. The film surpassed Bohemian Rhapsody to become the highest-grossing entry in the genre.
According to figures confirmed by Lionsgate, the film earned $358 million in North America and $553 million internationally. The total reported does not include weekend earnings.
The 2018 Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody grossed approximately $910 million globally during its theatrical run and earned Rami Malek an Oscar for Best Actor. Michael narrowly surpassed this benchmark to set a new record.
The film chronicles Michael Jackson's early years with the Jackson 5 and follows his career up to the 1988 Bad tour. Despite negative reviews from critics and backlash over its choice not to address child sexual abuse allegations against the artist in later years, the production achieved significant commercial success.
This outcome demonstrates that music biographies still attract strong audiences at the box office. Additionally, despite controversy over its narrative choices, the film drew attention in the cinema market through its commercial performance.
