The box office records this film is shattering left and right feels like a testament to the enduring appeal of these iconic characters.


In less than a week since its release, Deadpool & Wolverine, from Marvel Studios, has been consistently shattering box office records without pause. Not only did it set the record for the biggest opening weekend among films since Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2021, but it also ranks among the top ten highest-grossing opening weekends of all time with a staggering $483.3 million in global earnings. Additionally, this R-rated film has been breaking records for R-rated movies and recently achieved the best Tuesday ever for an R-rated movie. Yesterday, it continued its winning streak by securing the best Wednesday for a Rated-R film as well.

Based on Deadline’s report, Deadpool and Wolverine managed to gather an additional $19.3 million, surpassing the previous record set by Joker in 2019. In that year, Joker, a DC movie, made a record-breaking $9.6 million on a Wednesday for an R-rated film.

The duo of Deadpool and Wolverine is dominating at the box office, surpassing $600 million in its first week. There’s a possibility it might outdo Joker to claim the title of the highest-earning R-rated film ever made, but it still has some distance to cover to be crowned as the highest-grossing movie of the year.

The second installment of Inside Out has emerged as a massive success for Pixar Animation Studios, surpassing $1 billion at the box office in just its third weekend in theaters. Not only did it overtake Frozen 2 to become the highest-earning animated film ever made, but it also achieved an impressive milestone by making it onto the list of the ten highest-grossing films of all time as of today.

As a passionate movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that, as reported by Deadline, “Inside Out 2” is poised to break new ground globally, reaching an estimated $1.524 billion! This milestone will propel it past the earnings of “Furious 7” ($1.515 billion) and “The Avengers” ($1.521 billion), securing it the coveted #10 spot on the all-time global box office chart. What a fantastic achievement for this heartwarming sequel!
