How many views did Michael’s teaser trailer receive in its first 24 hours?

The story behind the answer

Michael’s teaser trailer received 116.2 million views in its first 24 hours.

The teaser for Michael (2026 film) reached 116.2 million views during its first day online. Lionsgate released the preview on November 6, 2025, and the trailer quickly became one of the most watched musical-biopic previews.

Its first six hours accounted for 30 million views. The 24-hour total surpassed the first-day view count for every other Lionsgate film and exceeded the record for a trailer for a musical biopic or concert film.

The figure was reported as higher than the 96.1 million first-day views for the trailer of Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour. These numbers measure trailer views, not ticket sales, opening-weekend revenue or the film’s eventual worldwide box office.
