Deadpool & Wolverine promised to bring in the big bucks, and now we have an estimate on what to expect.
Deadline reports the film is looking at an impressive opening, around $360 million in total. The outlet estimates the film’s start at roughly $160-170 million domestic and $180-190 million international.
That would also make the third Deadpool film the biggest R-rated opening of all time domestically, overtaking the first Deadpool‘s $132.4 million debut in 2016.
