Netflix has added a new version of its smash hit movie KPop Demon Hunters to its streaming service.
Released on the streamer on 20 June, KPop Demon Hunters became a global sensation and it currently ranks second among Netflix’s most popular English-language films behind Red Notice.
In a limited theatrical event, a sing-along version of the movie was released on 23 August and 24 August, leading to 1,000 sold-out screenings across the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.
Since its release in cinemas, KPop Demon Hunters has climbed to the top of US box office, kicking Zach Cregger's Weapons off the top spot.
Following its success, Netflix has now added the new sing-along version of the animation to its library where it is now available to stream worldwide.

Directed by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, KPop Demon Hunters has a near-perfect score of 97% on Rotten Tomatoes from 69 reviews.
"KPop Demon Hunters delivers not only a cornucopia of earworms whose melodies will be lingering in your brain for weeks, but also a fast and funny genre mash-up that puts most theatrical animated releases to shame," wrote The Hollywood Reporter.
Variety had this to say: "Because the nimble, genre-hopping movie is set in the world of K-pop, it may not even occur to fans that they're watching a musical – although it's kind of hard to deny as you catch yourself singing along."
KPop Demon Hunters and KPop Demon Hunters Sing-Along are available to stream on Netflix.
