As the highly anticipated movie prepares to impress viewers in theaters, here’s the way to acquire the legendary Deadpool and Wolverine popcorn buckets.
Despite the widespread anticipation for the numerous cameos and Easter eggs featured in Deadpool & Wolverine, there are some individuals curious about how they can obtain the film’s merchandise.
The upcoming Marvel movie is selling a popcorn bucket that is slightly inappropriate, which is in line with the tone of the Deadpool franchise. This is a departure from the more conventional films.
How is it possible to buy one of these buckets and what is their origin? Here is all the information we have.
Where can you get the popcorn bucket?
Only AMC Theaters sells the Deadpool & Wolverine popcorn bucket.
The popcorn bucket, shaped like Wolverine’s head and adorned with his iconic yellow comic book costume and mask, is advertised as being designed by Deadpool himself.

The bucket showcases Wolverine’s mouth wide open, complete with a tongue, making it ideal for holding delicious buttery treats (or any other snacks you prefer) during your movie screening.
In addition to the Wolverine bucket, moviegoers can also buy the unique Headpool popcorn holder at the theater. It is designed to resemble one of the Deadpool versions seen in the movie.
According to the information on AMC’s website about the Deadpool and Wolverine offer, the Wolverine bucket can hold a large order of popcorn and is priced at $29.99. The Headpool bucket, on the other hand, is priced higher at $39.99.
Deadpool & Wolverine popcorn bucket explained
The concept for the Deadpool & Wolverine popcorn bucket drew heavy inspiration from the outrageous sandworm bucket, which was designed to resemble the creatures featured in Dune.
Despite the marketing team’s efforts to promote the popcorn vessel as a fun and enjoyable way to eat snacks, it quickly gained notoriety on social media for its resemblance to a fleshlight.
Although considered inappropriate by certain fans, the Dune 2 bucket still managed to sell out during the movie’s premiere weekend.
It’s rather ironic that the sandworm fleshlight popcorn was exclusively sold at AMC Theatres. Therefore, it’s understandable that the theater chain would attempt to recreate their triumph with the highly anticipated summer superhero film.
A new bucket has arrived
Just prior to the film’s release, it was announced that Cineworld Cinemas would be offering a Babypool popcorn bucket and drink holder for purchase.

The newly released vessel is now accessible in the UK, with a standalone price of £34.99. Alternatively, by paying an additional £10, you can upgrade to include a large drink and a choice of large sweet or salted popcorn.
Are there any other promotional foods featuring Deadpool and Wolverine?
Additionally, there are various themed beverages and a specific type of popcorn available as part of the Deadpool & Wolverine promotional food offerings.
Some AMC Theatres are providing customers with the option to purchase ceramic mugs featuring the main characters, as well as a GRIPPR cup that includes a mystery topper.
Fun alcoholic beverages related to the film can be purchased by moviegoers aged 21 or older. These include the Do-Over, a sweet strawberry drink, and The Crossover, a sharp orange drink, both of which are made with Aviation American Gin, owned by Ryan Reynolds.
Similarly, they are providing a variety of non-alcoholic options, such as the Coca-Cola Chimichanga Chaser and the Fanta Pina-Claw-Da, for those who do not wish to consume alcohol.
In addition, for those who want to add more snacks to their Wolverine or Headpool popcorn bucket, AMC has a special offer of a Deadpool Double-Take shareable combo. This combo includes Nashville Hot gourmet popcorn, regular popcorn, two large shareable candies, and two large drinks.
The theater is promoting this combination as the ideal snack platter to enjoy with your best friend while watching Deadpool and Wolverine bond over their shared love of action and wit.
