The Marvel superhero movie, distributed by 20th Century Fox due to a deal struck before the Disney buyout, takes the top spot with an incredible $132 million.
The Deadpool gross is far bigger than expected and the film has already recouped its budget, more than can said for the mega budget Disney Marvel films.
Falling down to number 2 this week is Kung Fu Panda 3 which after 3 week has taken $100.6 million after a $26 million weekend.
Also new this week is: How to Be Single at number 3 and Zoolander No 2 at number 4.
