It’s a Marvel-ous run.

In its fifth week in theaters, “Deadpool & Wolverine” is still leading at the box office.

The Marvel flick raked in just over $3.6 million on Friday, according to The Numbers.

It is expected to take in up to $20 million during Labor Day weekend, which would mean it would then be surpassing the $600 million milestone in sales, according to Deadline.

“Reagan” came in second, with earnings of $2.6 million on its first day in theaters.

...

“Alien: Romulus,” which was released on Aug. 16, fell down a notch to third, with a just over $2.2 million-dollar take.

...

“It Ends With Us,” moved down one spot to fourth, with $2.1 million in revenue.

...

“Twisters,” which was released on July 19, returned to the top five this week, landing in fifth, with sales of just over $1.8 million.

BOM has D&W doing slightly better internationally for a total of $1.2B so far.

And if you have faith in your creative team, so you let them get on with making the movie they want to make rather than Franchise Content 18. Weird.
