Michael added $0.8M on Day 59 in the US, taking its domestic total to $367.9M and worldwide gross to $939.1M.
Jaafar Jackson’s performance continues to drive steady numbers in the film’s extended run.
| Day 56 | $1.1M |

| Day 57 | $0.9M |
| Day 58 | $0.8M |
| Day 59 | $0.8M |
The biopic is showing typical extended-run moderation but is still adding respectable numbers. The $0.8M figure on Day 59 reflects continued interest from music lovers and fans of Michael Jackson. Jaafar Jackson’s critically praised performance has been one of the biggest factors behind the film’s impressive longevity.
At this stage, most films would have dropped much lower. The fact that Michael is still adding close to a million dollars on weekdays in its ninth week is impressive.
Market-wise, the film continues to perform better in urban centres and among older audiences. With a current 2.46x ratio, the film has already secured HIT status.
