‘Deadpool 3’ Dethrones ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ as Most-Viewed Trailer Launch With 365 Million Views
variety.comJordan Moreau Deadpool is slicing his way into the Marvel Cinematic Universe — and the record books. The first trailer for “Deadpool and Wolverine,” which debuted Sunday during the Super Bowl, has broken the record for the most-viewed movie trailer within 24 hours with an astounding 365 million total views, per Disney.
The previous record holder was the trailer for fellow Marvel movie “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” which had 355.5 million views in its first 24 hours back in 2021.
Deadpool had some help from this year’s Super Bowl, which ended up as the most-viewed telecast of all time and reached 123.7 million viewers.
