Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine Becomes Best-Selling Week One Digital Sales Ever For An R-Rated Film!
Earlier this month, Disney released the Marvel Studios movie Deadpool & Wolverine on digital platforms for purchase and rent.
Disney has announced that “Deadpool & Wolverine” has broken yet another record as it made its in-home debut, delivering the highest-selling week one ever for an R-rated film on domestic digital platforms.
“Deadpool & Wolverine” currently stands as the #2 movie of the year and the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all-time at the global box office, having earned more than $1.3B globally to date ($634M domestic and $698M international). Other notable milestones include:
- Ranks as the #13 highest-grossing domestic film of all-time.
- Stands as the #5 domestic, #10 international, and #7 global MCU film of all-time.
- Had the highest-grossing global opening for an R-rated film ever, surpassing 2016’s Deadpool.
- With “Deadpool & Wolverine” and “Inside Out 2”, Disney has the top 2 movies of the year and back-to-back $1 billion hits, the only studio ever to release back-to-back $1 billion films in a given year.
The action-packed buddy film starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, and directed by Shawn Levy, received an “A” CinemaScore, is Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, and holds a stellar audience score of 95%.
In addition to its availability on Digital, the film is still playing in select theaters nationwide and it will arrive on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on October 22nd 2024. No Disney+ release date has been announced, and with the success of the movie on digital platforms, it’s hardly surprising that Disney is in no rush to put it on Disney+ yet.
