The highly anticipated first round of box office projections for Marvel Studios’ upcoming film, “Deadpool & Wolverine,” suggests a groundbreaking milestone: an opening weekend expected to exceed $160 million. If realized, this would mark the highest-ever debut for an R-rated film, solidifying the “Deadpool” franchise’s dominance in this category.
Currently, the original “Deadpool” from 2016 holds the top spot with a record-breaking $132.4 million opening weekend, closely followed by its 2018 sequel, “Deadpool 2,” which debuted at $125.5 million. Should “Deadpool & Wolverine” surpass the $162 million mark, it would also outpace the opening weekend of “Barbie” and claim the highest debut since the $181.3 million launch of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” in November 2022.
Marvel fans and box office analysts alike are eagerly awaiting the release of “Deadpool & Wolverine,” poised to witness another historic moment in cinematic achievements.
