Brandon Purdie, Global Head of Theatrical Distribution at Angel Studios, stated, "This film is a testament to the power of storytelling that amplifies light and brings families together. The overwhelming response underscores the audience's desire for meaningful, faith-affirming content."

The King of Kings opened to an impressive $19.4 million domestically, setting a new record for the largest opening weekend for a faith-based animated film . Its sustained box office performance, including a strong second weekend gross of $17.5 million, reflects its broad appeal and the growing demand for inspirational storytelling.

In addition to its theatrical success, Angel Studios is excited to announce that The King of Kings will be available for Premium Electronic Sell-Through (PEST) and Premium Video on Demand (PVOD) starting May 27, 2025.
