*K-Pop Demon Hunters* has dethroned *Red Notice* to claim the title of Netflix’s most-streamed movie ever, amassing an impressive 236 million views.
The film’s original soundtrack has also made waves, landing four songs in the Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 simultaneously — a historic first for the chart. This runaway success has sparked sequel talks between Sony and Netflix, signaling big plans for the animated hit.
Netflix is capitalizing on the phenomenon, swiftly integrating *K-Pop Demon Hunters* into its flagship titles at the upcoming Netflix House entertainment hubs. Set to open in Philadelphia on November 12 and Dallas on December 11, these centers — years in the making — will feature activities tied to the film, showcasing the streamer’s agility in leveraging its new megahit.
The move underscores the title’s cultural impact, already cementing its place in the platform’s pantheon.

This unexpected theatrical success raises questions about a potential expanded cinema run for a sequel, putting CEO Ted Sarandos—long a staunch advocate for streaming exclusivity — in an intriguing spot. The industry watches closely as Netflix navigates this shift.
