How do you like those chimichangas?!
Last night saw the Deadpool movie open with Thursday night advanced screenings, and now it’s learned the film did exceptionally well — so much so that Deadpool now has the best February preview opening ever, beating out the likes of Fifty Shades of Grey (we need a Deadpool meme for that!).
Deadpool is currently topping the opening weekend box office surpassing How To Be Single and Zoolander 2.
It’s even possible Deadpool may be able to nab the best February opening ever, but it might be tough as Fifty Shades of Grey holds the record with $85.1 million ($93 million when the four-day President’s Day weekend is accounted for).
Deadpool also looks to make the top R-Rated movie list, but again, it’s unclear whether or not Deadpool will be able to set the record achieved by Matrix Reloaded with $91.7 million.
@VancityReynolds @robertliefeld @deadpoolmovie great movie, guys! We loved it!
