Marvel‘s “Deadpool & Wolverine,” made a massive $38.5 million in Thursday previews at the box office.
It is the biggest of the year so far, easily beating Disney’s animated family hit “Inside Out 2,” ($13 million)
It’s also the highest preview gross ever for an R-rated movie.
The first “Deadpool” made $12.7 million in Thursday night previews back in 2016, and its 2018 sequel topped that with $18.6 million.
Some estimates are putting “Deadpool & Wolverine” on track to open domestically with a excellent $160 million to $170 million, but those projections are likely too conservative.
Other analysts and studios are predicting it will open closer to $190 million or even $200 million.
The film is expected to make between $350 million and $390 million globally after its first weekend. It cost $200 million to produce and approximately $100 million to market.
