The Biggest Netflix Movie Of 2025 Breaks Another Record
'KPop Demon Hunters' continues to impress and shows no signs of slowing down as a top contender.
Netflix releases numerous blockbusters each year, but very few people could have predicted that KPop Demon Hunters would become the hit of the year for the streaming giant. It now breaks yet another record.
The animated film premiered on Netflix in June 2025. The musical, directed by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, has since become the most popular film of all time on the streaming platform, surpassing even Red Notice from 2021, which featured a star-studded cast.
According to multiple film websites, KPop has indeed captured another record. The film has already spent 15 consecutive weeks in the Netflix Top 10. This makes it the longest running title ever in the charts for English-language films, once again surpassing Red Notice.
This action film, featuring stars like Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds, held the top position for a total of 12 consecutive weeks. Despite dropping somewhat after that, it managed to secure an additional 2 weeks at the top, but this has now been overtaken by KPop.
Netflix, which usually shies away from theatrical releases, saw the potential of KPop and decided to release a sing-along version in a limited number of theaters in the United States. This also turned out to be a hit.
In just one weekend, the film earned nearly 20 million dollars, making it the first Netflix film ever to achieve the number one spot at the box office that weekend. It is also the first film soundtrack to feature four songs in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100.
