Deadpool & Wolverine's teaser trailer is officially a record-breaker.
Unleashed on Sunday at the Super Bowl, it went on to collect 365 million views in the first 24 hours and thus became the most-viewed trailer of all-time.
The previous holder of this record was Marvel Studios stablemate Spider-Man: No Way Home, with 355.5 million.

According to Variety, this year's Super Bowl (contested between Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas) was the most-watched telecast of all-time, reaching 123.7 million households, so the marketing team behind Deadpool & Wolverine pulled off quite a masterstroke.
Despite encountering each other in 2009's forgettable X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) have never before existed in the same cinematic universe until now.
