‘Michael’ had officially claimed the title of the highest-grossing music biopic ever released, overtaking the long-standing record set by ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’.
The film has now generated an insane $911.9 million USD at the global box office, marking a significant achievement for both the production and the wider biopic genre. Its success has been driven by strong audience demand across both domestic and international markets, with ticket sales continuing to build momentum well beyond its initial release.
In North America, the film has exceeded $240 million USD, overtaking the ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ regional performance and establishing a new record for a music-focused biographical feature. Overseas, the film has performed equally strongly, delivering consistent returns across key territories and contributing to its record-breaking worldwide total.
The milestone further highlights the lasting cultural influence of Michael Jackson, whose music and legacy continue to resonate with audiences around the world. With its theatrical run still ongoing, industry observers suggest the film remains on course to become one of the rare music biopics to cross the $1 billion USD mark globally.
