After a buzzy year for film, and amid an awards season that is already filled with twists and turns, two of 2025’s biggest movies are finally getting a physical media release.
On Monday, a report from Variety confirmed that both Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein and KPop Demon Hunters will be joining the Criterion Collection. Both films were initially released as Netflix originals, with very limited theatrical runs and the overwhelming bulk of their viewership coming from streaming. Both films debuted to astronomical numbers on the platform, with KPop Demon Hunters earning the honor of being the platform’s most popular original film of all time. Both films are also currently in contention for this year’s Oscars, with Frankenstein nominated for a total of nine awards (including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor for Jacob Elordi) and KPop Demon Hunters nominated for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song.
