Read our privacy policy Over the weekend, the highly anticipated third Wolverine outing Logan reached cinemas, marking Fox’s second R-Rated superhero release following Deadpool. Thanks to overwhelmingly positive reviews and fan response, the Hugh Jackman-starring flick has already grossed $237.8 million around the world, including $11.4 million in the UK and $85.3 million according to The Hollywood Reporter. While falling short of Deadpool’s opening weekend - $132.4 million in the US alone - the huge box-office taking marks the biggest domestic opening of the year so far. "It is a very personal and visceral story for the character, which contemplates mortality.” Logan now has the fifth-biggest debut for an R-rated in the US, unseating Fifty Shades of Grey but falling behind Deadpool, Matrix Reloaded, American Sniper and the second Hangover film.
