The world awaiting Ryan Reynolds to deck out the red and black spandex suit of Marvel’s Merc with a Mouth got its first look of enthrallment on Sunday’s Super Bowl. With epic visual scores and a smashing crossover with the X-Men Universe, the favorite anti-hero promised to be clad in the robe of “Marvel Jesus” on July 26th. As such promises can never go down in cinematic history without victory, Deadpool & Wolverine already achieved the first of its many by bagging the title for the most-viewed trailer of all time. 

In fact, from the overwhelming response, it seems that fans are really edging on the frenzy to witness the return of the outlaw savior.

For 6 long years, the world kept its eyes stuck on the undefeated gaze for the Deadpool fever to ensue. From the very moment the concept of the threequel came out, the anticipation had been roof-hitting. As a result, the key of expectation unfolded in many ways; sometimes through tedious dilly-dallying of shooting, some with endless leaks, some others with Deadpool urging to not expose unauthorized snaps. And now, just two days into the trailer release, it has already achieved a massive feat with 365 million views. 

As of now, it is currently reigning the tag as the most-viewed trailer of all time. Following the accomplishment, the assumption that takes the most bids is fans might be calm with the first look’s unveiling. But with its record-shattering viewership, it seems the boat took an opposite sail to rev up the engines of anticipation even more. Therefore, there might never be as appropriate a moment to say this, but Deadpool & Wolverine is standing firm in their grab for the most anticipated movie of 2024.

Deadpool & Wolverine move beyond disappointing title speculations

A day ahead of the trailer release, concerned fans were aided with a presumed moniker “Deadpool & Friend”. Well, to be true, it was more of a panic moment than a complete savior since fans were outrageously in dismay, even over its unconfirmed status. One of the possible reasons apart from the tell-all anticipation for the outnumbering viewership could be fans making sure that the title is not what their nightmares were about.
