Fans are all excited for the re-release of Harry Potter as part of the film’s 25th anniversary and are getting themselves ready to re-live the experience and to make it more exciting. Cinemark and Regal have unveiled their Harry Potter collectible popcorn bucket and soda cup collection.
If you are unfamiliar with this, it’s a popcorn bucket trend that allows fans to take a piece of the wizarding world home with them.
It follows in the footsteps of Dune: Part II, which released a Sandworm popcorn bucket collectible that went viral overnight because of its unique design. This started as a trend that many movies followed, with studios introducing their own collectible popcorn buckets. One of the recent examples is The Odyssey. Where the IMAX camera-inspired popcorn bucket collectible was distributed to make the experience more fun for fans.
With the release of Harry Potter, Cinemark revealed three popcorn buckets – the first one is a tin bucket with a Harry Potter 25th anniversary decal wrapped around it and a “stirring wand” that’s shaped as Harry’s wand. Second one is a Sorting Hat popcorn bucket, where the Sorting Hat is the lid and the books are where the popcorn resides. The third one is a limited edition where the Sorting Hat is color gold rather than the default brown. Cinemark will also be selling Gripper cups, where each design is based on one of the four houses.
On the other hand, Regal offers three popcorn bucket options named Nimbus 2000, Hogwarts Express, and the Hogwarts Trunk. The theater chain will release a collection combo that comes with a cup and a bucket with Harry Potter 25th anniversary decals wrapped around it.
Cinemark has started selling Harry Potter collectibles, and interested fans can get them from their nearby theaters. Whereas Regal’s Harry Potter collectibles will be available on August 27, the day Harry Potter hits the theater.
