On the cusp of the Japan release and fresh off the heels of scoring five nominations for the upcoming 12th annual National Film Awards UK, Lionsgate and Fandango are teaming up once more for a nifty MICHAEL-themed collectors box. Dubbed as the ultimate “home premiere box,” this collector’s item is being positioned as more than a standard physical media release, instead leaning into a growing trend where major theatrical films are extended into high-end collectible products aimed at dedicated fanbases and legacy audiences.

What’s in the Box?
Among the items reportedly included in the set is an A4 promotional poster that features film details printed on the reverse side, alongside an official t-shirt showcasing Jaafar Jackson as Michael, and a black-and-white letterman jacket branded with the Michael logo. Additionally, the bundle also features themed apparel like white socks, as well as the official soundtrack presented on vinyl. In need of a sweet treat as you watch? Lionsgate and Fandango has you covered with a range of collectibles into a curated viewing experience and additional movie-night elements including a branded popcorn tub, a box of sweets and a Fandango gift card intended to facilitate at-home viewing of the film.
The Sweepstakes
Jealous (as are we)? The giveaway tied to the set adds another layer of interest for fans, with Fandango offering members of the public a chance to win one of the promotional boxes through a special promotion. There is a catch, however, the contest is currently restricted to U.S. residents, meaning international fans are left out of eligibility despite strong global interest in the release and its collectible appeal.
What’s Next?
Japan officially opens on June 12, and while the film will remain in theaters as it hits VOD, Lionsgate has confirmed the movie is set to arrive on premium video-on-demand platforms on June 9. From there, Lionsgate will follow up the streaming debut with a premium physical rollout on July 14 (according to the Blu Ray website), introducing an array of Collector’s Edition 4K UHD Steelbooks at retail giants like Walmart and Amazon.
The Synopsis
Michael tracks the meteoric rise of Michael Jackson from the early days of the Jackson 5 to the peak of the Thriller and Bad eras. With a reported $155 million production budget (some report this as being $200 million), the film had high expectations to meet. The film has not only met them but is now heavily rolling towards the $1 billion mark.
