Brand new Wolverine film Logan has been released to staggering box office figures proving the 15-certificate route could be the superhero genre’s future.
This exact time last year, Fox proved the ‘adult’ superhero film was a trusted formula after the unprecedented global success of X-Men spinoff Deadpool starring Ryan Reynolds.
It most probably helps that this has been pitched as Jackman’s final Wolverine film having played the role a grand total of nine times before.
It’s currently tough to predict whether Logan will match that film’s takings but a clearer sense will be gathered when the global box office figures roll in as the weekend draws to a close.
