Hugh Jackman’s last stand as Wolverine did even better than expected at the US box office.
According to final box office figures, Logan’s weekend debut totaled $88.4 million (£72.2 million) in North American ticket sales.
That’s $3 million (£2.4 million) more than was estimated at the weekend.
Logan, a 20th Century Fox release, took in $247 million (£201 million) globally over the weekend.
