Deadpool and Wolverine becomes the most watched live-action movie on Disney Plus since Black Panther 2

Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool and Hugh Jackman's Wolverine in Deadpool and Wolverine.

Deadpool and Wolverine's domination is continuing as the Marvel Phase 5 movie has become the most watched live-action film on Disney Plus since Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

According to Disney (via Variety), Deadpool and Wolverine garnered 19.4 million views globally after just six days on the streamer. That means it's the most watched live-action movie on Disney Plus (and Hulu) since Black Panther 2 arrived in 2023.

This isn't Deadpool and Wolverine's first record, either. The movie also became the highest grossing R-rated movie of all time, beating Joker.

Considering how successful the movie is, then, you're probably wondering if there'll be a Deadpool 4. "I would love that but there's a reason it's been six years since the last one," star Ryan Reynolds recently said of the possibility. "It just sort of swallows my life whole and I have four kids that I wouldn't mind introducing myself to at some point, just spend a little time walking them to and from school."

Deadpool and Wolverine also recently got a physical release, which, thanks to the director's commentary, has unveiled even more about the movie – including Blake Lively's key role in shaping the ending and an unconventional plan to stop set leaks from drones.
