The re-edited version of the flick brought in just $6 million in North America, but did pretty well overseas, bringing in another $44 million. It's also important to point out that a relatively large chunk of Deadpool 2's gross came from the PG-13, holiday-themed re-release, Once Upon a Deadpool. In a way, different as the movies may be, there is probably no Joker without Deadpool. Which, in part, gave other studios the confidence to green light R-rated comic book movies and other big blockbusters. That, itself, was narrowly above the first Deadpool, which earned a record-breaking $782.6 million in 2016. That puts it narrowly above last year's Deadpool 2, which made $785 million. That gives it a current grand total of $785.5 million. To that point, Joaquin Phoenix as the Clown Prince of Crime now stands above Ryan Reynolds as the Merc With a Mouth, as Joker has officially passed Deadpool 2 at the box office, making it the highest-grossing R-rated movie in history.Īs of this writing, Joker has earned $258.6 million domestically and $526.9 million overseas (and counting). A far better take than anyone truly expected. The movie has had one heck of a run at the box office since it opened in theaters earlier this month. ![]() ![]() That's another one in the record books for Joker.
