Many anime fans are hoping for a Demon Slayer Infinity Castle popcorn bucket to appear in US theaters when the movie releases nationwide on September 12. Otherwise known as Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle – Part 1: Akaza Returns (yep, that’s a mouthful), the movie was released on July 18 in Japan, where it has already smashed box office records. In fact, it’s already entered the top 10 highest-grossing films in the country’s history. Here’s what we know so far about a possible Demon Slayer popcorn bucket for theaters like Regal and AMC.
Is there going to be a Demon Slayer popcorn bucket for Infinity Castle at Regal or AMC?
While there is no official word (yet) on a Demon Slayer popcorn bucket for the 2025 Infinity Castle movie, it is expected that there will be one available at various theater chains across the US.
The safest bet for a popcorn bucket based on the movie is AMC, which offered both a bucket and a drink cup for Demon Slayer To The Hashira Training movie in 2024. They weren’t anything complex, just a black bucket and cup with official art wrapped along the side. So hopefully we’ll get a confirmation about a possible popcorn bucket from AMC as we get closer to the movie’s US release date.
There’s also a rumor swirling around that Regal might be releasing a popcorn bucket of its own for the film. According to a commenter on a post in the RegalUnlimited Reddit, the chain is slated to promote a Demon Slayer popcorn and drink combo as well as T-shirts according to a bulletin. That said, this should be taken with a grain of salt as this has not yet been confirmed.
At any rate, fans should expect that the special Demon Slayer Memorial popcorn bucket that was released in Japan at T-Joy theaters likely won’t make it stateside. Even so, the bucket can be found on various auction sites like eBay in case you’re looking for it.
