A Victory for Imagination: Animated Film Is Now Netflix’s Biggest Ever

In a stunning victory for creativity and imagination, an animated film has climbed to the very top of the Netflix mountain. “K-Pop Demon Hunters,” a vibrant musical adventure, is now the most-watched movie in the streamer’s history, proving that animation is a boundless medium for blockbuster storytelling.
The film’s record was built on the back of 236 million views from a captivated global audience. This incredible number saw it surpass the live-action spectacle “Red Notice,” demonstrating that imaginative worlds and animated characters can resonate more deeply with viewers than even the biggest movie stars.
While it is the champion of views, its 100-minute length places it third in the rankings for total minutes watched, with 23 billion. It sits behind the longer films “Red Notice” and “Don’t Look Up,” but its victory in reaching the most people is a landmark moment for animation.
The film’s imaginative power is also evident in its sensational soundtrack, which has charted four songs in the Billboard Hot 100’s top 10. A sequel has been confirmed, promising another journey into the wonderfully creative world of “K-Pop Demon Hunters.”
