Deadpool & Wolverine roared into life at the UK-Ireland box office with a £12.6m opening – the biggest of the year, and biggest for a Marvel Cinematic Universe title for over two years.
Playing in over 700 cinemas, the film took a location average around £18,000 for Disney, with final figures still to come. Deadpool & Wolverine has £17.3m in total having opened on Thursday, July 25.
It tops the £11.3m start of Inside Out 2 from last month, and £9.3m of Dune: Part Two from March. It is also the biggest opening for an MCU film since the £14.9m of Doctor Strange And The Multiverse Of Madness in May 2022, topping the £12.4m of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and £9.1m of Thor: Love And Thunder.
The film took £42m by the end of its run; Disney will hope to push Deadpool & Wolverine past £40m, which would be a record for a Deadpool title.
Its opening is ahead of the £10m of 2016’s Deadpool and the £7.7m of 2018’s Deadpool 2.
It knocked Universal’s Despicable Me 4 off top spot on its third weekend. The animated franchise title added £3.1m – a 37% drop that brought it to £25.3m total. That is slightly behind the £25.6m of 2017’s Despicable Me 3 at the same stage; that film went on to be the highest-grossing title of the franchise with £47.9m, boding well for similar figures on number 4.
Amid strong competition and sunny weather, Twisters added £1.5m on its second weekend for Warner Bros. The 52.3% drop took it to £7.9m total, and it should pass the £10m mark within the next fortnight.
A Quiet Place: Day One leads Paramount’s slate, adding £168,000 on its sixth weekend. It has £9.5m in total, and will likely end slightly short of the £11.8m of A Quiet Place Part II and £12.2m of A Quiet Place.
Indian romantic comedy Bad Newz added £59,607 on its second weekend – a drop of 64% that brought it to £307,838 in total for Moviegoers Entertainment.
Jane Schoenbrun’s Sundance 2024 thriller I Saw The TV Glow was a strong performer on its opening weekend for Park Circus. The film took £59,149 from just 45 sites at a £1,314 location average.
