Michael has grossed over $1 billion at the global box office. That number is unfathomable. This is unquestionably the single biggest biopic of all-time & that includes Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. This comes at the same time The Odyssey & Spider-Man are smashing box office records as we speak. Cinema is on absolute fire right now.
