K-Pop Demon Hunters is coming back to the silver screen, and this time, it’s inviting audiences to sing their hearts out. The blockbuster animated adventure, which smashed Netflix records earlier this year, will return for a limited-time “Sing-Along Event” in select U.S. theaters this August. The film first landed in cinemas during its late June 2025 debut. But thanks to its massive streaming success and a fanbase that’s anything but quiet, it’s getting another shot. With catchy tracks, colorful chaos, and a cult-like following, the encore seems less like a surprise and more like a victory lap.
K-Pop Demon Hunters Returns with Theatrical Sing-Along Event
Netflix’s animated phenomenon K-Pop Demon Hunters is making its way back into theaters for a special “Sing-Along Event” on August 23 and 24. First spotted by multiple entertainment trackers on X over the weekend, the re-release will run exclusively in certain chains, echoing Netflix’s usual selective cinema strategy.
‘KPOP: DEMON HUNTERS’ will be getting a theatrical release for a sing-along event version of the film.

As for when the Sing-Along edition will hit Netflix? There’s no confirmed date yet, but history suggests it will eventually stream. Netflix once launched a Sing-Along edition of My Little Pony: A New Generation in 2021. Its karaoke-style version dropped in July 2022. With a hit soundtrack and a dedicated fanbase, K-Pop Demon Hunters feels perfectly built for this kind of shared, upbeat movie experience.
