With more than a month and a half to go before Netflix officially stops counting views, the movie has to overtake a 2024 hit in order to enter the streamer's all-time top 10 chart. This list is led by KPop Demon Hunters, the breakout animated mega-hit that remains the only Netflix original to have accumulated more than 300 million views in 91 days. The number 10 movie — the movie that's currently at the most vulnerable position on the list — is the Millie Bobby Brownfantasy vehicle Damsel.
