Bohemian Rhapsody has become the highest-grossing music biopic in cinema history after it generated more than $600m worldwide at the box office.
The Queen biopic is currently at $608.7m and has earned more money in the US than previous record holder, Straight Outta Compton, while also outperforming several recent musicals, such as last year's The Greatest Showman and 2008's Mamma Mia!
It's box office performance, according to Deadline, has been aided by singalong screenings, particularly in Asia and Latin America. The film is also faring well in terms of award nominations.
In the Golden Globes, the film has been nominated for Best Motion Picture - Drama, while Rami Malek, who stars as frontman Freddie Mercury, has been nominated for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture - Drama.
Bohemian Rhapsody also received two nominations at the SAG (or Screen Actors Guild) Awards, with Malek once more nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role, while the entire cast is nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture.
