Box office analysts started tracking the superhero adventure last week, with some even claiming that it could hit north of $60 million in its opening frame. The 20th Century Fox film will go up against Warner Bros. romantic comedyHow to Be Single, which doesn’t have any early tracking data yet, and Paramount’scomedysequelZoolander 2, which analysts are predicting will open with $20 million. If these projections are accurate, the R-ratedDeadpoolwill have a higher opening weekend than both the originalX-MenandX-Men: First Class.
