If you missed Michael in theaters, your moment has arrived.

The Michael Jackson biopic Michael, which debuted in theaters on April 24, is now available to watch on demand - and it has grossed over $880 million worldwide since its release.

The film is available to rent or purchase on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Fandango at Home, Google TV, YouTube, and more. The purchase price is $24.99, with rental access available for approximately $19.99. 

The story begins with a 10-year-old Michael, tracing his journey to superstardom. The film covers the creation and success of some of Jackson's most influential albums, including Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad, concluding in 1988 as the singer prepares to launch his hugely successful Bad World Tour. 

Directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by John Logan, the film stars Jaafar Jackson in the titular role, alongside Nia Long, Colman Domingo, Miles Teller, Laura Harrier, and KeiLyn Durrel Jones. 

Following the film's massive success, a sequel covering Michael Jackson's life and career post-1988 is already said to be in development. 

For those who want a physical copy, DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K UHD editions hit shelves on July 14, with exclusive collector's editions available through Lionsgate, Walmart, and Amazon. 

Michael carries a story worth engaging with thoughtfully - a boy shaped by faith, family, and extraordinary gifting, whose life raised questions the world is still wrestling with. Whether you're watching for the first time or revisiting it at home, it remains one of 2026's most talked-about films.
