The first trailer for Deadpool And Wolverine, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, debuted during Super Bowl LVII on Sunday.
It has since taken over the internet.
The highly anticipated preview broke the record for the most-viewed movie trailer ever within 24 hours.
It totaled an astounding 365 million views, according to Disney.
The previous record holder was the trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home, which garnered 355.5 million views in its first 24 hours when it first premiered in 2021.
‘Welcome to the mercury in retrograde of Marvel Phases. #DeadpoolWolverine,’ Ryan, 47, wrote after the sneak-peek was aired.

The trailer opens with a birthday party for Ryan’s Wade Wilson, which is rudely interrupted by a knock at the door.
Soldiers in the black Time Variance Authority armor (an agency introduced in Loki) are standing there with electrified batons.
Making a reference to the R-rated action franchise coming under the umbrella of the Mouse House, the actor, who is heavily made up in a wig and scar prosthetics deadpans to the camera, ‘Is that supposed to be scary? Pegging isn’t new for me, friendo, but it is for Disney.’
Wade is then transported into the Marvel-verse.
There, Matthew MacFadyen tries to recruit him to become a ‘hero among heroes.’
The effort is met by a another controversial quip by irreverent character who says ‘your little cinematic universe is about to change forever.
He then refers to himself saying ‘I’m the Messiah, I. Am. Marvel Jesus.’
Hugh Jackman, 55, doesn’t show his face in the trailer, but his presence is felt.

At the end of the trailer when Deadpool has been pummeled by his opponents a shadow overcomes him.
‘Don’t just stand there you ape, give me hand up,’ he says.
That’s when the ‘ape’ grants the request, but not in the way Deadpool might have hoped.
The claws come out and he quickly backtracks saying’ Nope. I’m actually okay. Thank you very much.’
The movie also symbolizes Wolverine moving from the X-Men universe into Marvel’s.
Director and co-writer Shawn Levy celebrated the good news by making a quick video using clips from the film and adding the graphic ‘Most Watched Trailer of All Time’
As part of the long-running ‘feud,’ between the two actors, Hugh changed the movie title to ‘Wolverine & A**hole,’ in a graphic shared on social media writing, ‘Fixed it.’ Ryan saw the post and commented ‘Pump the brakes. It’s a long road to July, Peanut’
