Michael Jackson Biopic Hits $1 Billion | Annapolis News

Michael Jackson’s biopic “Michael” just shattered the box office, hitting a staggering billion dollars worldwide — making it the biggest biopic ever, not just for music but period. Directed with reverence and starring his nephew Jaafar Jackson in the lead, the film traces his meteoric rise from the Jackson 5 to the “Bad” era, and it’s been a global smash, especially overseas. This milestone isn’t just a win for Michael’s legacy — it’s Lionsgate’s first-ever billion-dollar film, 17 years after his “This Is It” shows were supposed to launch. And here’s the kicker: a sequel is already in the works. Proof that his music and story still grip audiences worldwide, decades later.
