In a remarkable display of box office prowess, the superhero duo of Deadpool and Wolverine has surged past the $400 million mark domestically and is closing in on $500 million internationally. Analysts are now predicting that the R-rated blockbuster could hit the coveted $1 billion milestone by this weekend.
Despite its formidable performance, the film has largely operated without significant competition. However, that is expected to change with the upcoming release of Wayfarer Studios and Sony Pictures’ adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel, It Ends With Us. Starring Blake Lively, known for her role as Ladypool and wife to Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds, the film is anticipated to make a strong debut and poses a serious challenge to Deadpool and Wolverine’s current number one position.
Ryan Reynolds recently expressed gratitude to fans for their overwhelming support of the film. In a heartfelt message, he thanked moviegoers for their enthusiasm and shared behind-the-scenes moments from all three Deadpool movies.
“This has always been a game of inches, and the relentless effort we put into this film, especially during post-production, is something I’ll never forget. Thank you to everyone who supported this film, whether by seeing it multiple times, embracing new characters, or acknowledging familiar faces we hold dear from the past. It’s been an incredible journey,” Reynolds stated.
It Ends With Us is set to hit theaters this Friday, promising to offer audiences a compelling alternative amidst the superhero spectacle. As the battle for box office supremacy heats up, all eyes are on whether this new contender can dethrone Deadpool and Wolverine from their top spot.
