‘Bob Marley: One Love’ Surpasses $100 Million Globally

Paramount’s “Bob Marley: One Love” is feeling more than alright at the global box office. The musical biopic has generated $101.1 million worldwide after only 10 days in theaters, including $61.4 million in North America and $39.7 million from 59 international territories.

“One Love” retained the top spot on domestic charts in its second weekend of release, grossing $3.7 million on Friday. Internationally, the film added $3.3 million on Thursday and expanded into eight new markets this weekend.

“Bob Marley: One Love,” which opened on Valentine’s Day on Feb. 14, beat expectations in its box office debut with $28.6 million over the traditional weekend and $52 million during the six-day holiday stretch. Although the biopic landed mediocre reviews (and holds a 42% average from critics on Rotten Tomatoes), it earned an “A” CinemaScore from early audiences. “One Love” cost $70 million to produce.

Kingsley Ben-Adir leads “Bob Marley: One Love” as the titular reggae legend, with Lashana Lynch co-starring as his wife, Rita Marley. Directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green, the film follows the journey behind Marley’s revolutionary music, from his African and European tour in the mid-1970s to the production of his landmark album “Exodus.”

“My family and I are honored with the amazing response to ‘Bob Marley: One Love’,” the Jamaican musician’s son Ziggy Marley said in a statement. “Like my father’s music, this movie is meant for the people and his message of peace, love, and unity is clearly connecting with audiences around the world. We thank the people for embracing this film and in so doing helping to highlight the message of one love.”
