Deadpool & Wolverine looks likely to be the saving grace of the MCU's box office woes as projections point to a record-breaking $360 million opening weekend. After breaking records with the most-viewed trailer of all time and generating an extreme amount of hype for the movie that will finally bring its eponymous heroes and several other X-Men to the MCU, a vast box office projection is not surprising. Nevertheless, it will be a welcome boost to Marvel's fortunes as it looks set to exceed the opening weekend of The Marvels by nearly 700%.
