Gary Gray has become the highest-grossing movie by an African American director — ever. The film has earned enormous recognition since its August release, and has raked in more than 200-million-dollars at the worldwide box office. This marks Universal’s seventh film to reach the 200-million-dollar mark worldwide in 2015.
