The movie will include 10 subtitled languages, Netflix announced Friday.

Son Tung M-TP said he hoped the opportunity would "bring V-Pop closer to hearts worldwide."

Raphael Phang, Netflix's content acquisition manager for Southeast Asia, said: "Son Tung’s music transcends borders. His artistry resonates with not only fans in Vietnam, but other markets beyond Southeast Asia."

The movie sold 10,000 tickets within 48 hours before its mid-June premiere and later generated VND5.5 billion ($238,700) after the first three days. It had the most successful opening ever in this genre, according to Box Office Vietnam.

Son Tung M-TP, real name Nguyen Thanh Tung, is a 26-year-old singer from northern Thai Binh Province. Tung kicked off his career in HCMC in 2011 and quickly became a star. At 26, he already has a slew of hits as well as many accolades, including an MTV Europe Music Award and inclusion in the 2018 Forbes 30 Under 30 list in Vietnam.
