If you\u2019ve been wanting to see\u00a0KPop Demon Hunters<\/a>\u00a0on the big screen, then good news\u2014especially if you can\u2019t stop singing Huntr\/X\u2019s best hits to yourself.<\/p>\n

THR<\/a> reports that Netflix will return the smash hit animated movie to theaters later this month for a limited time. Tickets<\/a> for Netflix\u2019s hit film<\/a> are being sold for screenings currently slated for Saturday, August 23, and Sunday, August 24. These showings will be sing-along events, meaning lyrics for the movie\u2019s songs will pop up on screen for viewers to read and belt out along with the characters. Wicked Part One<\/a>\u00a0had similar showings last year, and it\u2019s not uncommon for hit musicals to go this route.<\/p>\n

KPop Demon Hunters has actually graced the big screen already, but not in the sing-along format. It was in theaters for a week in LA, New York, and San Francisco when it first came out to be Oscar eligible, and Netflix later submitted its mid-movie song<\/a> \u201cGolden\u201d for the Best Original Song category. Next week, it\u2019ll be in the first wave of digital screeners<\/a> to Oscars members as part of its For Your Consideration campaign.<\/p>\n

Depending on how popular these new\u00a0KPop\u00a0sing-along screenings get\u2014and considering the soundtrack\u2019s record-breaking success<\/a> right now, it\u2019s not hard to imagine that they will be\u2014it wouldn\u2019t be surprising if Netflix extends the run for more dates. Even if it doesn\u2019t, it\u2019s another win for the film, which Netflix is already looking at as their new golden franchise, and they want to expand it<\/a> with sequels, stage plays, or whatever else would make some money.<\/p>\n
