Deadpool 2 Is Now The Highest Grossing X-Men Movie

Deadpool 2 originally came out last May and enjoyed a standard amount of time in theaters, with its global haul adding up to approximately $738 million. But then last December, the PG-13-rated cut, Once Upon a Deadpool, was screened for a couple weeks domestically and shown in China. As reported by THR, that rerelease added an extra $45 million to Deadpool 2’s total take, $40 million of which came from China. As a result, Deadpool 2 has now succeeded Deadpool as the most financially successful X-Men universe movie with $784 million, just barely surpassing its predecessor’s $783 million. X-Men: Days of Future Past ranks third with nearly $748 million.
