Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in "Deadpool & Wolverine."
Deadpool & Wolverine—Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s summer blockbuster—appears to be on its way soon to digital streaming.
Deadpool & Wolverine debuted in North American theaters on July 26. The R-rated superhero adventure marks the debut of the two former 20th Century Fox/Marvel characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In the film, Deadpool/Wade Wilson (Reynolds) needs to enlist the help of a multiversal version of Wolverine/Logan (Jackman) to save his timeline—and specifically, the people he loves—before the universe they live in collapses.
Wolverine reluctantly agrees to the mission since Deadpool promises the adamantium-clawed mutant that he’ll be able to undo a past tragedy.
However, before Deadpool and Wolverine even get a chance to save their worlds, they are dumped into The Void by Time Variance Authority honcho Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen)—and they must get past the powerful mutant Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin) to escape it.
The usually reliable When to Stream had said earlier on Monday that Deadpool & Wolverine is expected to debut on digital streaming via premium video on demand on Tuesday, October 1.
When to Stream—which is typically accurate with its release date reports—later appeared to take down its article about the streaming release, but not its post about the movie on X. When to Stream noted in its initial announcement on its site that Deadpool & Wolverine’s distributor, 20th Century Studios hasn’t announced or confirmed the release date and it is subject to change.
When the film debuts on PVOD, Deadpool & Wolverine will be available on such digital platforms as Prime Video and AppleTV+.
According to The Numbers, Deadpool & Wolverine has earned nearly $621 million domestically and $683 million internationally since its July 26 release in theaters, for a worldwide box office tally of $1.304 billion worldwide.
Rotten Tomatoes critics largely embraced Deadpool & Wolverine and collectively gave the movie a 79% “fresh” rating based on 399 reviews.
The RT Critics’ Consensus for the movie reads, “Ryan Reynolds makes himself at home in the MCU with acerbic wit while Hugh Jackman provides an Adamantium backbone to proceedings in Deadpool & Wolverine, an irreverent romp with a surprising soft spot for a bygone era of superhero movies.”
Viewers were nearly unanimous in their positive reactions to Deadpool & Wolverine and gave the film a “fresh” RT Audience Score of 95% based on more than 25,000 verified user ratings.
Directed by Shawn Levy, Deadpool & Wolverine is still playing in theaters.
