Deadpool & Wolverine – Box Office Record Breaker

The film Deadpool & Wolverine has already surpassed box office records, and it is now on track to break the most significant one set by Joker.

The story of Deadpool & Wolverine’s journey in theaters is a captivating tale in its own right. The film has continuously broken box office records and even exceeded The Passion of the Christ to claim the title of highest-grossing R-rated movie in US history.

In addition, as pointed out by Reddit users on Reddit, Deadpool & Wolverine is on track to soon surpass Joker’s title as the highest-grossing R-rated film worldwide.

Out of all the films on the list, the two mentioned stand out as outliers because they are the only R-rated movies to be included in the top 50 highest-grossing films of all time. Although Oppenheimer, set to release in 2023, comes close, it falls short by almost $50 million compared to Alice in Wonderland’s impressive box office earnings of $1.02 billion.

Despite initial doubts, Joker became an unexpected R-rated success, largely due to the support of dedicated fans who rallied for its release. With a worldwide box office total of $1.07 billion, the film has secured its place as the 37th highest-grossing movie of all time, just below The Dark Knight Rises.

Despite Joker’s dominant position since 2019, Deadpool & Wolverine is expected to surpass it soon. According to the current data from Box Office Mojo, Deadpool & Wolverine has already grossed $1.03 billion worldwide. Although it did experience a slight decrease in its second week, the film is projected to overtake Joker as long as it maintains its current level of success.

Naturally, the next concern is for how long it will maintain its success. The highly anticipated sequel to Joker, titled Joker: Folie à Deux, is set to premiere in theaters this October and has already garnered acclaim from critics.

Despite the anticipation for the film to replicate the success of the original at the box office, there are concerns about how its jukebox musical format will impact its reception.
