Since the first movie of the Deadpool franchise, the makers and the creatives have not disappointed the fans while showing the extreme gore and language that the comic book character is famous for.
God’s perfect idiot Deadpool being an A-rated superhero has always been a raunchier character known for his explicit slurring, his sarcasm, and breaking the fourth wall. Being a bad guy who gets paid to mess with the worst, Deadpool is the perfect hero.
Since Disney acquired Fox Studios back in 2019, the fans of the character have always been troubled in thinking that Disney would choose to make a PG-13 Deadpool sequel, which would rob the true essence of the character.
However, Deadpool & Wolverine have used the f-word 118 times in total, making it the first film of the Deadpool universe to even break the cursing records apart from the major box office records. Deadpool 2 (2018), directed by David Leitch and starring Ryan Reynolds, comes next with 90 curses in total followed by Deadpool (2016), directed by Tim Miller, which used the F-word 84 times.
Why is Deadpool & Wolverine breaking major box office records?

Director Shawn Levy during the press tour for the movie emphasized how shocked he was regarding Disney and Marvel’s openness to making this movie more authentic.
