Avengers: Infinity War is still putting up big box office numbers right now, but it almost certainly will finally fall from the top of the heap when Deadpool 2 has its opening weekend.
Of course, Infinity War will almost certainly exceed Deadpool 2’s total box office take by, say, over $1 billion, so the Russos may be the ones having the last laugh.
The marketing for Deadpool 2 has been top notch, and how will the movie possibly be able to resist making a joke at Infinity War’s expense then?
This particular battle of the superhero movies is probably over, but next weekend there will be another one when Deadpool 2 opens.
