Despite expectations from both analysts and the film’s studio, Deadpool has been a gigantic box-office success, quickly becoming the highest-grossing R-Rated film of all time.
Elsewhere in Fox’s superhero universe, X-Men: Apocalypse is almost in cinemas, with reviews having just hit the internet.
There’s no doubt about why the film did so well: Ryan Reynolds.
Unfortunately for the studio, initial reactions have not been positive, critics generally feeling the film is a bit ‘meh’. The film’s writer and producer also spoke about the next X-Men film, stating it will likely be set in the 90s (following Apocalypse, set in the 80s).
