20th Century Fox’s PG-13, holiday infused re-imagining of Deadpool 2 drew an estimated $953K in early morning industry estimates in its opening Wednesday at 1,566 theaters (including Tuesday previews).

Because Deadpool has a little time — and likely people — to kill before his sequel attacks the world on Friday, he turned up at the Ed Sullivan Theater tonight to interrupt Stephen Colbert’s Late Night monologue.

Much like Deadpool enjoyed breaking down the fourth wall in his movie, he continues to chip away at the divide between Fox and Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe.
