"Deadpool & Wolverine" has become the highest-grossing R-rated title of all time, surpassing Warner Bros.'"Joker."
The feat not only showcases the Marvel Cinematic Universe's durability at the box office after a series of recent misfires, but also suggests that Marvel Studios can delve into darker content in the future without alienating moviegoers.With $516.8 million in domestic ticket sales and $568.8 million from international audiences,"Deadpool & Wolverine" has exceeded $1.085 billion globally.
The previous Deadpool films were produced through 20th Century Fox and held R-ratings as well. When the Merc with a Mouth transitioned to Disney's ownership in 2019, it was unclear if the company would embrace his fourth wall-breaking crudeness or leave him on the shelf while producing other Marvel projects.
"Disney will probably be very selective in deciding what future films they're comfortable with distributing under the more mature rating because they still have to consider their enormous family audience, as does Marvel, but this at least offers a blueprint of how and when it's appropriate to do so," Robbins said.
