Music biopics that blew up the box office

Music biopics are all the rage. A Complete Unknown, based on the life of Bob Dylan and starring Timothée Chalamet, took the box office by storm, and a highly anticipated Bruce Springsteen biopic, with The Bear star Jeremy Allen White stepping into the shoes of 'The Boss', is slated for release later this year.

In light of this trend, we’ve ranked the 25 highest-grossing music biopics of all time, with pre-2022 box office grosses adjusted for inflation to give you an idea of how much they made in today's money. Read on to discover which movies made the cut – a few entries may even surprise you!
