Deadpool & Wolverine officially made a new global box office milestone by earning $1 billion this weekend. Since its official screening on July 24, 2024, the latest film from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has grossed US$535.2 million globally, then US$494.3 million  domestically in North America, bringing the total to 1.029 billion dollars.

As reported by Deadline on Sunday August 11, 2024, thanks to this achievement, the third Deadpool film also ranks second as the highest-grossing R-rated film in history. The film starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman is predicted to overtake the position of the Joker film which grossed US$1.079 billion when it was released in 2019.

The Deadpool 3 film is also the second Disney film to earn the biggest profit throughout 2024 following the success of Inside Out 2. The Disney/Pixar film was recorded to have earned US$1.593 billion or Rp25.4 trillion when it was shown since July 7, 2024.

Deadpool & Wolverine became the 31st Disney film and the 11th Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film to successfully pocket US$1 billion at the global box office.
