Deadpool & Wolverine Closing In On $900M Global Box Office; Will Have $1B Secured At Weekend

Deadpool & Wolverine is having an impressive run at the box office! With its global total nearing $900 million and expected to hit $1 billion soon, it’s clear the film is resonating strongly with audiences worldwide. The achievement of becoming the second R-rated movie ever to cross the billion-dollar mark would be a significant milestone, underscoring the film’s widespread appeal.

The fact that it’s expected to surpass Oppenheimer as the second-biggest R-rated film of all time highlights its success in a competitive market. It’s also notable that Deadpool & Wolverine will reach this milestone faster than Joker, despite the latter not having a China release.

Disney having two billion-dollar hits in the same year, with Inside Out 2 and Deadpool &

Wolverine, demonstrates the studio's strong performance in 2024.

Passing Iron Man 3 and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness places it among the top-performing MCU films, reflecting its strong audience reception and box office appeal.

With its current position at No. 9 and set to overtake Captain Marvel, it's clear that the film is resonating well with both fans and general audiences. It’s a testament to the popularity of the characters and the success of the film’s blend of action, humor, and star power.

As it continues to perform well, it will be interesting to see if it can further ascend the MCU rankings or if it will establish itself as a standout among Marvel's top earners.
