Freakier Friday Popcorn Buckets & Collectibles: AMC, Regal, Cinemark, Marcus

Special Merchandise and Popcorn Buckets for Freakier Friday

Fans of the upcoming Disney body-swapping comedy Freakier Friday are eager to know if there will be any special merchandise or popcorn buckets available at theaters. The film is set to debut nationwide on August 8, 2025, and many are checking with major theater chains like AMC, Cinemark, Marcus Theaters, and Regal to see what unique items they might offer during the movie’s run. Fortunately, the sequel to the 2003 classic (itself a reboot of the original 1976 film) will have some collectibles available, though only one theater chain is offering a popcorn bucket this time around.

Marcus Theaters: A Unique Popcorn Bucket Experience

Marcus Theaters is the only chain offering a special popcorn bucket for Freakier Friday. The novelty here is that it will feature two items inspired by the film’s body-swapping theme. The first is the Freakier Friday Switcheroo Popcorn Bucket, which has a lid that makes it look like a soda with ice. The second is the Freakier Friday Fake-Out Cup, which mimics a popcorn bucket. These items are cleverly designed to reflect the movie’s core concept.

The officially licensed 85-ounce popcorn bucket costs $22.99, while the 32-ounce drink cup is priced at $18.99. Both items are available through the official Marcus Theaters shop, but they are currently sold out. However, local theaters may still have stock, so fans are advised to act quickly if they want to get their hands on these unique collectibles.

Regal Theaters: Swapcorn Bucket and Sweepstakes

Regal Theaters isn’t offering a traditional popcorn bucket, but it is introducing a “Swapcorn” bucket. This item features a divided bucket with one half filled with classic buttered popcorn and the other with caramel. It’s unclear whether the bucket has an actual partition or just a printed image of the movie. Regardless, customers who purchase the bucket from August 8 to August 24 will earn double points in the Regal Rewards program.

Additionally, Regal members can use 100 credits to enter a Freakier Friday sweepstakes for a chance to win a three-night trip to Los Angeles. Those attending the Fan First Screening on August 6 will also receive a friendship bracelet set with beads that spell “FREAKIER” and “FRIDAY.”

AMC Theaters: Friendship Bracelets and Sweepstakes

AMC Theaters is also hosting a Fan First Screening on August 6, where attendees will receive the same friendship bracelets as Regal. While the chain isn’t offering a popcorn bucket, it has its own sweepstakes for a trip to Los Angeles. Entries can be earned by purchasing a ticket through the AMC Stubs Membership between August 6 and August 17.

Cinemark Theaters: Guitar Pick Keychain

Cinemark is giving away a guitar pick keychain to those who attend the movie’s first showing at Cinemark XD on August 7. The keychain features a green and purple guitar pick with the Freakier Friday logo and comes with a string of links. Though the window to grab this item is short, fans may still be able to secure one if they act quickly.

Conclusion

While the availability of merchandise varies across different theater chains, Freakier Friday offers a range of fun and unique collectibles for fans to enjoy. Whether it’s a themed popcorn bucket, a friendship bracelet, or a guitar pick keychain, each item provides a special way to celebrate the film’s return. With limited supplies, fans are encouraged to check with their local theaters and act fast to ensure they don’t miss out.
