In a remarkable achievement, “Deadpool & Wolverine” has climbed into the top ten highest-grossing films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). With a global gross of $1.142 billion, the film has outpaced both “Captain Marvel” and “Spider-Man: Far From Home.”
Released just 24 days ago, “Deadpool & Wolverine” reached this milestone without the strategic advantage of being positioned between major Avengers films or debuting ahead of a record-breaking blockbuster. Its success is particularly notable given its launch during a period of lower MCU momentum.
This impressive box office performance comes on the heels of Disney’s recent disappointment with “The Marvels,” the sequel to “Captain Marvel,” which underperformed significantly and resulted in a $200 million loss for the studio. In contrast, the original “Captain Marvel” ended its run with $1.128 billion.
Despite “The Marvels” struggling at the box office with only $206 million, “Deadpool & Wolverine” has resonated strongly with audiences. The film, driven by the talents of Ryan Reynolds, Shawn Levy, and Hugh Jackman, delivers a combination of high-octane action and engaging storytelling, a recipe that has clearly paid off.
Currently, “Deadpool & Wolverine” occupies the ninth spot on the MCU’s all-time highest-grossing list, surpassing “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” which grossed $1.131 billion. The film is now closing in on “Captain America: Civil War,” which holds the eighth position with $1.155 billion.
Here are the top ten highest-grossing MCU films:
1.Avengers: Endgame – $2,799,439,100
2.Avengers: Infinity War – $2,052,415,0393
3.Spider-Man: No Way Home – $1,921,847,111
4.The Avengers – $1,520,538,536
5.Avengers: Age of Ultron – $1,405,018,048
6.Black Panther – $1,349,926,083

8.Captain America: Civil War – $1,155,046,416
9.Deadpool & Wolverine – $1,142,616,895
10.Spider-Man: Far From Home – $1,131,927,996
As “Deadpool & Wolverine” continues to perform strongly, it is expected to surpass “Captain America: Civil War” in the near future, further solidifying its place among the MCU’s highest-grossing films.
