Currently, the signs are all pointing to Deadpool 2 debuting with $130 million - $150 million at the North American box office next weekend and while that's good news for the Merc with the Mouth, that's bound to have an impact on Avengers: Infinity War. For now, though, that movie continues to rule because it will remain at #1 this weekend with a projected three-day haul of a solid $60 million.
That means the Russo Brothers helmed release will become the second-fastest movie to pass $500 million domestically, a feat it's managed to achieve in 15 days. That's one day sooner than Star Wars: The Last Jedi and five days later than Star Wars: The Force Awakens, a movie which still holds a number of records. This definitely bodes well for Avengers: Infinity War's final week unopposed, though.
The Marvel movie should end the weekend with $546 million and analysts expect it to end its domestic run with $650 million. That's behind Black Panther, a cultural phenomenon which is now $3.6 million away from $700 million! We don't have international numbers for Avengers: Infinity War at the moment but $2 billion remains a possibility, so be sure to stay tuned to CBM for additional updates.
