Welcome to The Official Film Chart.
THE UK TOP TEN
What a week it has been on the chart! Two new entries and three re-entries blow the placings apart. To make way for these titles, we must say goodbye to The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring, The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers, Borderlands, Dune Part Two, and The Boy And The Heron. We also have a brand new number-one title. What could it be? What do you think? I was right!
DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE SLICE THE CHART APART TO HIT THE TOP!
Deadpool & Wolverine earns the biggest week of sales in two years, as it makes its Official Film Chart debut. Racking up 212,000 sales on digital downloads only, this is the biggest week of sales for a film since Top Gun: Maverick earned 351,000 in its debut week during the summer of 2022.
Deadpool & Wolverine – the release of which led *NSYNC’s Bye Bye Bye to return to the Official Singles Chart – is the Marvel Studios sequel to Deadpool (2016) and Deadpool 2 (2018), starring Ryan Reynolds once again as Deadpool, while Hugh Jackman reprises his starring role as Wolverine in a new universe.

THE HITCHER THUMBS A LIFT INTO THE TOP TEN!
The second new entry of the week is the 1986 psychological thriller The Hitcher at Number 7, which received a 4K UHD restoration and re-release.
TWISTERS BLOWING ITSELF OUT!

THE BAD BOYS ARE RIDING OUT OF THE CHART!

THE BIKERIDERS LOSE THEIR CHART WHEELS!
Last week’s chart-topper, The Bikeriders, rides down nine places to Number 10.
FINISHING OFF!
And that, my friends, is all there is for this week. I won’t blow my own trumpet about being right about what would dominate this week’s chart. But unless something HUGE comes along to dethrone it, you can expect to see Deadpool & Wolverine hold the top spot for a while. Not even the digital release of Alien: Romulus in just under two weeks will really bother it (Read our review here.)
How long do you think the excellent Marvel team-up will hold the top spot for? Why not leave us a comment to let us know what you think? With that in mind, until next week…
Whatever you decide, whatever you buy, stay safe, be kind, look after each other, and happy viewing!
