Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” overtakes “Deadpool & Wolverine” to become the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time at the global box office. Multiple outlets report the film reaches about $1.352 billion worldwide, surpassing the earlier benchmark held by “Deadpool & Wolverine,” which finished its run at roughly $1.33–$1.34 billion.
The coverage highlights that “The Odyssey” is now the top R-rated title regardless of prior records, with comparisons framed around worldwide totals. Some outlets mention the timing of the earlier film’s release and end-of-run figures, while others focus on how the new record reflects ongoing box-office performance since “The Odyssey” opened in mid-July. Several sources also reference social media acknowledgment by Ryan Reynolds, who congratulates or reacts to the update around the moment the record is confirmed. One outlet notes figures are compiled by The Numbers, while others present the headline total from Universal’s reported global accounting.
Overall, the accounts align on the central claim: “The Odyssey” is the new global box-office leader among R-rated movies, with “Deadpool & Wolverine” as the immediate predecessor.
