Hugh Jackman's Criminally Underrated Music Biopic Is a Netflix Hit

Hugh Jackman has surfaced with two music-themed projects that showcase his versatility on Netflix. Song Sung Blue, co-starring Kate Hudson, earned strong critical notices and a near-perfect 97% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, while logging a reported $30 million budget and a $58 million global box office. The Sheep Detectives, based on Leonie Swann’s Three Bags Full, was anticipated as a cozy mystery but did not recoup its budget, despite a broad platform rollout. In contrast, Song Sung Blue remains a streaming success, currently ranking among Netflix’s top titles as it competes with GOAT, Office Romance and Maternal Instinct.
