The 2019 live-action retelling of Disney’s Aladdin flies to Number 1 on the Official Film Chart following its release across disc. Zooming past the quarter-million sales mark in just its second week, the much-loved story knocks Keanu Reeves’ John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum to Number 3.
The Secret Life Of Pets 2 starring Kevin Hart & Harrison Ford is this week’s highest new entry at Number 2 on digital downloads only. Continuing the story some time after events of the last movie, Max the dog faces brand new challenges after his owner gets married and has a child.
Avengers: Endgame holds strong at Number 4 for a second week, while Pokemon: Detective Pikachu drops two to five. Godzilla: King Of The Monsters rises one place to Number 6 and Elton John biopic Rocketman drops two to Number 7.
Another brand-new entry comes from X-Men: Dark Phoenix, which takes a place at Number 8 on just one day’s worth of digital downloads. Starring Game of Thrones’ Sophie Turner as Jean Grey and the titular Dark Phoenix, when a mission goes wrong, the much-loved Jean Grey is exposed to a dark and ancient power which begins to corrupt her – and the X-Men must choose between saving their friend, or saving the world.
The boxset of John Wick Chapters 1-3 drops three places to Number 9, just ahead of Bohemian Rhapsody which hangs on to its Number 10 position.
On this week’s Official Film Chart online show, check out an action-packed clip from Men In Black: International, which is available to Download & Keep from October 7. Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson take the lead as the new MIB agents sworn to protect the Earth from the scum of the universe.
