Overview
- Ross Duffer said 1.1 million fans have RSVP’d, with roughly 3,500 showtimes already sold out across more than 620 theaters.
- The footprint quickly expanded from an initial 350-plus venues to 500-plus and now 620-plus across major and specialty circuits including AMC, Regal, Cinemark, Harkins, Megaplex, Cineplex, Alamo and Landmark.
- Screenings begin at 5 p.m. PT on Dec. 31 and continue through Jan. 1, aligning exactly with the finale’s Netflix release time.
- Because the events are non-ticketed and use concession vouchers, there will be no recorded box-office and theatrical turnout will not be counted in Netflix viewership totals.
- Deadline, citing EntTelligence, frames the 1.1 million RSVPs ahead of KPop Demon Hunters’ pre-sales and behind Demon Slayer’s admissions, and the Duffer Brothers hinted they may appear at a Los Angeles screening.
