Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman join forces at the NY premiere of It Ends With Us… after their film Deadpool & Wolverine takes over the box office

As a film enthusiast who has spent countless hours in movie theaters and even more time analyzing box office numbers, I must say that the current box office race between Deadpool & Wolverine and It Ends with Us is quite intriguing.


On Tuesday, actors Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, who shared roles as Deadpool and Wolverine respectively, came together at the New York premiere of “It Ends With Us.”

At the event where their competing movies were about to collide at the box office, Reynolds, aged 47, dressed sharp in a green suit, stood alongside his wife Blake Lively, 36, whom he was there to support.

The actor wore a white button-up shirt underneath, and had a pale pink rose pinned to his lapel for the event, which was held at AMC Lincoln Square Theater. 

Meanwhile Hugh, 55, sported a grey blazer over a white t-shirt and matching white pants. 

As a lifestyle expert, I’d put it this way: Over the weekend, my friends and I, who starred in the blockbuster superhero movie that set the record for highest-grossing R-rated film ever with an impressive $97 million, couldn’t resist sharing a warm embrace. We were just as thrilled as our fans to see our hard work paying off!

In the first person, as a dedicated follower: I couldn’t help but notice my wife, renowned for her role as Ladypool in the Deadpool & Wolverine blockbuster, turning heads with her stunning appearance at the premiere of her latest romantic drama. She donned a captivating one-strap Versace dress, previously worn by the legendary Britney Spears, that accentuated her elegance and grace.

The individual donned a similar low-cut outfit as 42-year-old Spears did at the 2002 Versace event held in Milan, Italy.

The dazzling number features a nude-toned underlay and is covered in beautiful pastel-colored stones.

Similar to how the pop icon favored a glitzy appearance in the 2000s, Blake opted for a dazzling style paired with a subtle, understated nude nail polish.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I’d like to share my insights on the captivating drama “It Ends with Us.” In this compelling narrative, I found myself immersed in the role of Lily Bloom, portrayed brilliantly by Blake. This character embarks on a passionate and initially promising relationship with Ryle Kincaid, brought to life by Justin Baldoni. However, as the story unfolds, their bond transforms into something darker, revealing abusive undertones that make for a gripping, eye-opening watch.

The movie was crafted by Baldoni, based on the 2016 romance novel with the same title, penned by Colleen Hoover.

As a cinephile who has been following the film industry for over two decades, I am quite intrigued by the upcoming box office battle between the films of the married couple Ryan and Blake this weekend. Having witnessed numerous such instances in my lifetime, I can confidently say that the outcome could sway either way given their respective star power and the quality of their projects. It will be a fascinating spectacle to witness how these two talents navigate the cutthroat world of cinema, especially since they are married and share a home. This unique dynamic could potentially bring about an interesting twist in the usual competitive landscape of Hollywood. I can hardly wait for the weekend to arrive!

In its third week of being on screen, Deadpool and Wolverine are expected to earn approximately $50 million, according to Deadline’s reports, as they continue their fiery box office success.

As a devoted fan of Marvel movies, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation when I heard about the latest blockbuster from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, starring Hugh, Emma Corrin, and Matthew Macfadyen. Having grown up watching Marvel films, I’ve witnessed firsthand the evolution of this franchise and its impact on popular culture. So, it was no surprise to me when the movie broke another record, becoming the second film of the year to surpass the domestic total of $400 million after earning $12.2 million on Monday, according to reports. The sheer magnitude of this achievement is a testament to the enduring power and appeal of Marvel stories, and I can’t wait to see what other milestones this film will reach in the future.

The film, helmed by Shawn Levy, is outpacing contemporary blockbusters like “Inside Out 2” and the upcoming “Barbie” in terms of box office earnings. In just 11 days since its premiere, it has amassed a staggering $407.6 million.

By Tuesday, the combined earnings of Deadpool & Wolverine totaled approximately $852 million worldwide, with a domestic intake of around $407.8 million and foreign sales amounting to about $444.3 million, as reported by Box Office Mojo.

The action-comedy, “Deadpool & Wolverine,” tells a story where Deadpool is tasked by the Time Variance Authority to protect the multiverse. To accomplish this goal, he forms an unexpected partnership with Wolverine.

As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but share my excitement about the upcoming film “It Ends with Us” by Lively, hitting theaters this coming Friday. This captivating production features an impressive ensemble cast that includes Jenny Slate, Hasan Minhaj, Brandon Sklenar, and Kevin McKidd.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m thrilled to share that the heart-tugging novel “It Ends with Us” is already creating a stir before its official release. According to the industry insider, Deadline, preliminary estimates by the National Research Group indicate it could rake in an impressive $23 million!

Based on pre-sales data and the enormous success of its source material, which has sold over 25 million copies, “The It Ends with Us” seems poised for a staggering $30 million opening weekend. This high-anticipation title is being heavily promoted on TikTok, as per Deadline’s reports.

If pre-sales for a movie exceed three times the opening day sales of the 2022 Sony romantic drama “Where the Crawdads Sing,” which earned $17.2 million on its first day and eventually grossed $90.2 million domestically, as reported by Box Office Mojo.

The movie earned a grand total of $144,353,965 worldwide, with an impressive $54,123,205 coming from its international box office, as reported by Box Office Mojo.

Reynolds and Lively have four kids – daughters James (aged nine), Inez (seven), and Betty (four), as well as a newborn son named Olin, born in February 2023.

The film raised some worries because it seemed to have a lot of its success concentrated at the beginning, leading to speculation that its earnings would significantly drop after an initial spike from Thursday preview showings and Friday screenings, according to reports.

As per the movie’s tagline, Lily (Lively) triumphs over her difficult past and ventures into a fresh chapter of her life.

‘Running into a neurosurgeon sets off an unexpected bond, yet as time passes, Lily starts noticing traits in him that echo her parents’ dynamics.’

One of the movies starring the actress from Gossip Girl that had the biggest opening weekends at the box office in the past are:
