How Much Did KPop Demon Hunters Make? Box Office Numbers Explained

by

Many people are curious about the box office earnings of the special event KPop Demon Hunters: A Sing-Along Event, which played in over a thousand US and Canadian theaters on August 23 and 24. Interestingly, this release coincided with a relatively quiet weekend for new movie premieres, making it easier to gauge the performance of KPop Demon Hunters against its main competitor, Weapons, a horror film that has been in cinemas for some time. Let’s explore whether KPop Demon Hunters has shown strong box office results thus far.

What are KPop Demon Hunters’s box office numbers in theaters?

The anticipated earnings from the debut of KPop Demon Hunters: A Sing-Along Event are projected to range between 18 and 19 million dollars over its initial two days.

Although Netflix hasn’t explicitly revealed the specific box office figures for the movie’s theater premiere yet, some sources have made their own predictions, taking into account Netflix’s secretive nature.

The statement encompasses Deadline’s report, where various sources suggest that the movie grossed around $19.2 million over the weekend – specifically earning $10.1 million on Saturday and $9.1 million on Sunday. In contrast, Box Office Mojo claims a slightly lower figure of approximately $18 million across 1700 screens, with Saturday’s earnings at $9.6 million and Sunday’s at $8.4 million. Regardless, both estimations fall comfortably within the anticipated range of $16 million to $22 million as predicted by Box Office Theory, considering the film’s hype.

In contrast to other films, Weapons brought in approximately $15.6 million during the weekend of August 23-25, even though it had been released several weeks prior. During that same timeframe, Freakier Friday earned $9.2 million and The Fantastic Four: First Steps garnered $5.9 million.

In this scenario, it seems that AMC was not involved in the initial screening of the KPop Demon Hunters sing-along, allowing Regal and Cinemark to benefit significantly from ticket sales. Each chain garnered approximately 30% of the audience turnout for the event.

As a true cinema enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news! If you’re like me and love belting out tunes along with your favorite films, then get ready because the sing-along version of the movie is now available on Netflix! You can catch it from August 25, starting at midnight. So, grab your popcorn, dim the lights, and let’s have a movie night with songs!
