Deadpool & Wolverine officially crossed the $900 million mark at the worldwide box office yesterday with a global cume of $903.3 million.

According to Deadline, Marvel Studios' first R-Rated movie will hit $1 billion this weekend, likely by the close of business on Saturday. All signs point to the Merc with the Mouth and Logan remaining at #1 at the box office with an easy win over Blake Lively's It Ends With Us.

The current international box office total is $472.3 million, with domestic at $431 million. Yesterday saw it make $14.1 million overseas while North America added an impressive $9.8 million. 

In other news, *NSYNC has posted what appears to be an official music video with their hit song "Bye Bye Bye" playing over Deadpool & Wovlerine's memorable opening credits (we'd be a little surprised if the band's social media manager made this with bootleg footage, but it's possible). 

As a result, we have a decent look at the movie's awesome title card reveal when Deadpool unsheathes Logan's claws!

Also below is a new poster for Deadpool & Wolverine and the latest behind-the-scenes photo featuring writer/director Shawn Levy hanging out with Jon Favreau's Happy Hogan in Tony Stark's Easter Egg-laden office. 

Will you be heading back to theaters this weekend to watch Deadpool & Wolverine?

In our review Deadpool & Wolverine last month - which you can read by clicking here - we concluded by saying, "A contender for the best superhero movie ever, Deadpool & Wolverine is two hours of Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman proving they were born to play these roles and, crucially, be part of the MCU. It’s a f***ing masterpiece."

Shawn Levy directs Deadpool & Wolverine, which stars Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, Emma Corrin, Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, Matthew Macfadyen, and Dafne Keen. The movie is written by Ryan Reynolds & Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick & Zeb Wells & Shawn Levy.

Kevin Feige, Reynolds, Levy and Lauren Shuler Donner produce with Louis D’Esposito, Wendy Jacobson, Mary McLaglen, Josh McLaglen, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, George Dewey, Simon Kinberg and Jonathon Komack Martin serving as executive producers.

Deadpool & Wolverine is now playing in theaters.

I saw NSYNC in concert... twice. It would be embarassing, but heck, it's good enough for Deadpool. And it's NSYNC...

$1B must be a deepfake number. I thought the whole world was boycotting this movie after @vectorsigma told us at least 1000 times that Evans was not actually on set 😵‍💫🤡

OK Marvel. You did it. You depoliticized me enough to get back on CBM news without talking about the BATSHIT CRAZY POLITICS going on all around us RIGHT NOW, less than 100 days from probably the biggest election in American history… And not care about any of that shit. Because I loved the Deadpool and Wolverine movie. I just watched it. And I can’t think of Anyone Better to talk about this movie with, then you guys. Don’t worry guys. I have coworkers that like to talk about politics, so here, I will not do that. [frick] politics.

So, spoiler alert. I’m sure none of us are surprised about the upcoming billion for this movie. But since I have not been on here for I don’t know, a year or two, something like that, I really don’t remember, I have not been spoiled on some pretty good shit.and, like I said, sport alert, was Johnny storm. Yes I like the surprises that came after, but since that was the first one, I loved it so much. I even wish he didn’t die.

As far as what’s been going on with me, same old. X-raying in New Orleans now, near my Cuban fam, instead of up in north Mississippi. So the food is better. And I just got back from a trip to Cuba. It was supposed to be six days, but the flight was canceled because of hurricane so I was there an extra three days and had to leave for another city. That was Havana so that was cool, but I only really got to see the airport, because the taxi driver took me straight from Camaguey to Havana in the middle of the night.

What’s been up with you guys? And please take all of this as an apology for being political my last time around. It’s still a strong temptation, particularly in light of current events, But I’ll save it for my coworkers.

@TheWalkingCuban - Hey man, good to hear from you. Hope you liked the trip.

My approach to politics (Internet and RL) is this: everyone has a worldview. And practically noone is prone to rewiew theirs, so why bother? They're not changing their mind, you're not changing their. All it will generate is friction and break a few friendships in the way.

So, to me, it's not worth it. I'm not that self-important and won't change the big picture so I prefer to not argue about it, unless I'm dealing with someone who reeealy wants to and I KNOW can take home different thoughts without any tantrum. But the warning here is 99.9% of the people can't.

TheWalkingCuban - 8/9/2024, 6:44 PM
@Fogs - agreed, though I will say I have seen people change their minds, but not in real time. So yeah, better to not go there.

Fogs - 8/10/2024, 4:18 AM
@TheWalkingCuban - exactly, it's a process. But the disagreements and fights are immediate 😂

@Fogs - now that’s a fact Jack

@GeneralZod - cool, if I were To recommend a part of Cuba where the people are nice, I would say there. Havana is pickpocket land.
GeneralZod
GeneralZod - 8/11/2024, 8:31 PM
@TheWalkingCuban - I've been to Havana 4x. Never had an issue there. But i haven't visited in 6 years.
TheWalkingCuban
TheWalkingCuban - 8/17/2024, 1:17 AM
@GeneralZod - yeah, I feel like people might be exaggerating, but I will say that the past six years have been very volatile. Things get worse and worse very quickly.
