Viral Indie Hit Series The Amazing Digital Circus Receives Theatrical Release Across Europe by Piece of Magic Entertainment
- Date
The conclusion to the global web series phenomenon heads to European cinemas in June for a special 4-day release, bolstered by phenomenal fan demand
Amsterdam, April 29 2026 – Piece of Magic Entertainment (POM) partners up with Glitch Productions and acquires theatrical distribution rights across all of Europe to The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act, the final chapter in the breakout animated series and viral sensation The Amazing Digital Circus created by Gooseworx and produced by Glitch Productions.
A true digital-era phenomenon, the independent web series debuted on YouTube in October 2023, rapidly capturing a global audience. Blending dark comedy, psychological themes, and surreal storytelling within a stylized digital world, The Amazing Digital Circus has to date received 1billion+ global franchise views (58M+ views across Europe) for the pilot episode alone.
Marking the first-ever theatrical release for The Amazing Digital Circus franchise, The Last Act brings one of the internet’s most distinctive and successful independent animated properties to the big screen. Presales for The Last Act’s theatrical run in the US this summer recently hit $5 million in just four days, breaking presale records for US distributor Fathom Entertainment and forcing an expansion from a four-day limited engagement in 900 theatres, to two weeks, on a minimum of 1,800 screens.
The fan demand has also been particularly notable in Europe, where fans have actively campaigned to bring the experience to the big screen. Responding to this groundswell of demand, POM’s European rollout taps into the growing appetite for big-screen fan-lead events and builds on the company’s established expertise in releasing online creator content theatrically, most recently with star YouTuber Markiplier’s feature film Iron Lung, which POM released across Europe earlier this year.
The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act combines Episode 8 with the all-new, hour-long Episode 9, giving audiences the opportunity to be the first to see the long-awaited conclusion of the series with a feature-length release in cinemas, before its online release. The theatrical event will also include exclusive content created especially for cinema audiences, including a brand-new intro animation, as well as a special entertaining recap of the series narrated by one of the characters.
Caspar Nadaud, CEO & Founder of Piece of Magic said: “We are thrilled to be bringing The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act to cinemas across Europe and to be answering the incredible demand we have seen from fans. It is exciting to see independent content creators making the leap to the big screen and harnessing the unique power of cinemas to bring audiences together. At Piece of Magic, our mission is to deliver the very best cinematic experiences to audiences around the world, and we are proud to be doing that with The Amazing Digital Circus. We are grateful to our partners at Glitch Productions for their trust and collaboration.”
Kevin Lerdwichagul, CEO of Glitch Productions said: “Glitch Productions is proving itself as the ultimate disruptor to the traditional animation industry with THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS. With its recent massive success in $5M US theatre pre-sales, it is clear that fans are yearning for more original, thought-provoking and visually-striking indie projects. We are thrilled to partner with Piece of Magic and bring ‘The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act’ to fans the series finale on the big screen across Europe.”
