Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny | The Legacy of Indiana Jones (Featurette)

This week on The Official Chart, The Flash speeds back in, and Mario bounces back, but Indiana Jones whips his way to the top!

Welcome to The Official Film Chart.

THE TOP TEN

This week sees one new entry and one re-entry into the placings. This means there is no room for Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves or Interstellar inside the top ten. But what is this week’s official number-one title? Grab your whip and Fedora as we find out.

INDIANA JONES WHIPS HIS WAY STRAIGHT TO THE TOP!

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny quests straight to Number 1 on the UK’s Official Film Chart. In yet another impressive chart-topping debut, the film managed 78,000 sales on digital downloads to claim its win. The fifth and final instalment of the classic series is the follow-up to 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull; based in the year 1969 we see Indy, played once again by Harrison Ford, head out on his final adventure before retirement to ensure an ancient and powerful artefact doesn’t fall into the wrong hands.
