KPop Demon Hunters is Netflix’s most popular movie of all time

Here is a 170-word summary of the news article: Netflix has announced that the animated musical film "KPop Demon Hunters" is now the most-watched movie in the platform's history, surpassing the previous record held by "Red Notice." Released in June, the Sony-produced "KPop Demon Hunters" quickly became a cultural phenomenon, with its songs topping the Billboard charts. The film's success was somewhat unexpected, as Sony opted to sell it to Netflix rather than pursuing a traditional theatrical release. However, Netflix capitalized on the hype by giving the movie a limited theatrical run, which resulted in it becoming the top-grossing film in the U.S. last weekend. The strong performance, both on Netflix and in theaters, has positioned "KPop Demon Hunters" as a likely contender for Academy Award recognition. The film's ability to resonate with audiences and dominate the cultural conversation has solidified its status as Netflix's most popular movie to date.
