This week on The Official Film Chart, Black Panther springs back into action, and the Minions return, but Matilda still manages to sing at the top of the chart!
Welcome to The Official Film Chart.
THE OFFICIAL CHART
We are heading towards March pretty quickly. And we can expect to see some top-quality home entertainment heading our way. This week on the chart, we find one new entry, and two re-entries. To make way for them, we lose Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance With Somebody, The Banshees Of Inisherin, and Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets Of Dumbledore. But what are the new titles on the chart? Come with me if you want to find out.
MATILDA CONTINUES TO SING AT THE TOP OF THE CHART!
It’s a second week at Number 1 for Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical, which continues its reign at the top based on digital download sales only. The musical adaptation has more than doubled the sales of its closest competition and sees an uplift in its sales last week of 18%.
BLACK PANTHER SHOWS ITS CLAWS AT NUMBER TWO!
Battling straight in at Number 2 is Marvel’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, this week’s biggest seller on physical formats. In this sequel to 2018’s Black Panther, the people of Wakanda must fight to protect their kingdom from intervening world powers and a brand-new threat, in the wake of King T’Challa’s death.

UNTIL NEXT WEEK!
And that is the top ten for this week. Next week, we should see the arrival of the Christmas action comedy Violent Night into the chart after its release on digital download to buy this past Monday (read our review here). So until next week…
