@skullohmania @Franspeech So far it’s predicted to just scrape it, which is completely fine for me. I’m okay with $1,000,000,001 😂

SHAMONE!!!
After beating #QUEEN on THU, KING OF POP #MichaelJackson’s music biopic #MICHAEL, powered by #Japan & #Russia, goes after #Oppenheimer, moonwalking to become ONLY biopic to hit 1B at Global #BoxOffice!

STRONG 17.1M overseas on 8th weekend, just a -10.5% drop thanks to #Japan’s debut (vs #BohemianRhapsody’s 17M, -15%, #Oppenheimer’s 19.5M, -60.8%), for a 569.4M intl. cume over 85 markets.

Allied to its 362.8M cume in the U.S., the biopic with a 200M production price tag not including marketing hits a 932.2M global cume (vs #BohemianRhapsody’s 702M, #Oppenheimer’s 891M at same point)

1B+ locked!🔒thanks to #Russia & #Japan .

Eyeing a 1B-1.05B run.

@Quote31490249 was deadline’s $911.9m count just the week’s domestic through Thursday?

@Quote31490249 You were right 😂

[AfropopHub @AfropopHub]

@Quote31490249 do you think the Netflix documentary will affect the box office for the movie? Netflix is a huge, global platform

[AfropopHub @AfropopHub]

@Quote31490249 I’m scared but I love your confidence 😂

[AfropopHub @AfropopHub]

@Quote31490249 With the digital release in play, when do you anticipate the movie will hit $1 billion now? Or do you still think it’s even possible?
