Deadpool and Wolverine is projected to cross $600 million domestically in its sixth weekend of release. This will make the superhero sequel the sixth MCU title to pass the massive milestone. Only five other Marvel films had achieved the feat before record smasher Deadpool, and Wolverine clawed its way into the club. The Shawn Levy-directed movie is also the sixteenth film in history to cross the $600 million mark stateside.
The film sees Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman star as titular heroes for the first time in the franchise. It helped revive the MCU after 2023’s The Marvels bombed at the box office. The 34th instalment in the MCU smashed records right out the gate, recording the biggest opening weekend of 2024, earning over $200 million stateside. Shortly after, Deadpool and Wolverine rose past $1 billion and became the highest-grossing R-rated movie, dethroning 2019 hit Joker.
