Logan‘s massive opening weekend was a fitting way to say goodbye to Hugh Jackman’s time as the steely-clawed mutant, Wolverine. The comic book-inspired film took over second place on the list of the biggest opening weekends for R-rated films and had the second biggest opening on IMAX screens for an R-rated movie. Logan also achieved the best opening of the stand-alone Wolverine films, topping 2009’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine ($85 million) and 2013’s The Wolverine ($53 million).
