‘Michael’ Biopic Drives Lionsgate To Record Movie Quarter Profit

‘Michael’ Biopic Drives Lionsgate To Record Movie Quarter Profit

Shamone! The King of Pop is still bringing in the cash. The Michael Jackson biopic “Michael” fueled a monster quarter for Lionsgate’s movie arm, per Variety.

The studio’s Motion Picture segment posted a record $105 million in profit, a huge jump from a measly $2.4 million a year ago. Revenue more than doubled to $587.3 million.

That box office magic helped the parent company narrow its overall quarterly loss to $29 million. It seems the studio’s bet on a moonwalking legend is paying off in a major way.
