Deadpool & Wolverine is still going places with its box office collections globally. It has now surpassed Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi’s lifetime collection despite facing multiple releases in the theatre. It might have left the top five domestic charts, but it is still churning in decent numbers to stay in the game globally. Scroll below to learn about its latest achievement.
The MCU movie is the much-needed blockbuster for the Marvel Studios after underwhelming movies like The Marvels and Ant-Man 3 last year. Even the Marvel web shows were getting poor reception from the fans. A handful of MCU movies were well-received by the fans after 2019’s Avengers: Endgame. This Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds starrer is the second film to cross the one-billion-dollar mark.
Meanwhile, Star Wars: The Last Jedi was released in 2017, and it was directed by Rian Johnson. It is the second installment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy and had an ensemble cast comprising Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Lupita Nyong’o, Domhnall Gleeson, Anthony Daniels, Gwendoline Christie, Kelly Marie Tran, Laura Dern, and Benicio del Toro. The film collected a whopping $1.334 billion [$1,334,407,706] at the worldwide box office and was the 20th highest-grossing film of all time, but not anymore. Deadpool & Wolverine has surpassed those numbers to take its place.
