Weekend box office totals are uncertain because Netflix withheld grosses for the singalong version of KPop Demon Hunters. Industry estimates place KPop Demon Hunters at $18–20 million, which would top Weapons' third-week take of $15.6 million. Freakier Friday earned $9.1 million for third place. The Fantastic Four: First Steps collected $5.9 million for fourth, and The Bad Guys 2 took fifth with $5.1 million. Netflix confirmed that KPop Demon Hunters is the streamer’s second-most watched movie and suggested it could become Netflix’s biggest film by the Oscars. Three songs from the film are in the Billboard Hot 100 top 10.
This weekend's box office is one big ol' guesstimate. Because Netflix isn't sharing its grosses for the singalong version of KPop Demon Hunters, we don't really know who topped the box office. We have a good guess though! reports that KPop Demon Hunters did $18-20 million in business, putting it above Weapons' more knowable third week of $15.6 million.
At number 3 is Freakier Friday with $9.1 million. The Fantastic Four: First Steps was at number 4 with $5.9 million, and The Bad Guys 2 closed the top 5 with $5.1 million.
Netflix is willing to disclose that KPop Demon Hunters has become the streamer's second-most watched movie. It could well become Netflix's biggest movie by the time t he Oscars roll around.
Three of the movie's songs - "Golden," "Your Idol" and "Soda Pop" - are in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. Surely stans can get behind one of those songs and dethrone "Ordinary" by Alex Warren for another week?
