\n\tThe moment has finally arrived: Kpop Demon Hunters<\/a> has officially become Netflix\u2019s most popular film of all time.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe animated musical produced by Sony Pictures Animation added another 25.4M views from August 18 to 24, bringing its total since its June 20 premiere to 236M views. It has now surpassed Red Notice to take the top spot on the Most Popular English Films list, as expected.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhat\u2019s even more impressive is that this doesn\u2019t seem to be even close to the end of the road for the title\u2019s performance. Last week marked the third consecutive week that the film has exhibited nearly 0% audience decline, after two straight intervals of 26M views. <\/p>\n

\n\tThanks to the launch of\u00a0KPop Demon Hunters\u00a0The Sing-Along Event, the film is likely to see another big boost in viewing over the course of this week. Deadline understands that Netflix plans to combine the viewership for the sing-along and the original movie, even though they are separate titles on the streamer, so we expect some pretty huge numbers in the next report as audiences tune into this new version. The singalong was also released theatrically this weekend, delivering a huge win for Netflix<\/a> as the film beat out Weapons for No. 1 at the box office with $19M.<\/p>\n

\n\tKPop Demon Hunters\u00a0has 24 days left in its 91-day premiere window to keep racking up views and widening the distance between it and now-No. 2 Red Notice (which had 230M views in 91 days).<\/p>\n

\n\tOver on the TV side of things, the first episodes of Wednesday Season 2 took the top spot with 13.4M views. Season 1 also made an appearance at No. 4 with 4M views as audiences refreshed their memories and\/or caught up before diving into Season 2. <\/p>\n

\n\tWednesday is likely to stick around the charts for quite a while, as Part 2 of the second season is poised to launch on September 3. <\/p>\n

\n\tIn second place was the British political thriller Hostage, which generated 10.8M views. The series stars Queen Charlotte\u2018s Corey Mylchreest as the activist stepson of the president of France (Julie Delpy), who costars alongside Suranne Jones as the British prime minister whose husband has been kidnapped.<\/p>\n

\n\tSpeaking of Mylchreest, he also had a presence on the film list with My Oxford Year\u2018s 5.9M views putting it at No. 4.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs always, there were also some reality titles on last week\u2019s Top 10. Fit For TV: The Reality of the Biggest Loser\u00a0took No. 3 with 8.5M views, while America\u2019s Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys came in ninth place with 1.9M views.<\/p>\n

\n\tElsewhere in film, Happy Gilmore 2 enjoyed a fifth week in the Top 10 at No. 6 with 4.5M views. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The moment has finally arrived: Kpop Demon Hunters has officially become Netflix\u2019s most popular film of all time.…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":173890,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[171,30075,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-178340","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-kpop-demon-hunters","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115097846831685328","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178340","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=178340"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178340\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/173890"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=178340"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=178340"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=178340"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
