Rocketman Takes The Stage At No. 1

Rocketman: Preview

Fantastical Elton John biopic, Rocketman, zooms up six places to hit the top of the chart this week, following its release on DVD and Blu-ray. Taron Egerton’s portrayal of the legendary singer enjoys its fourth week on the chart, besting its previous peak of Number 3. 

Last week’s Number 1, the live-action version of Disney’s Aladdin, slips one place to Number 2 and X-Men: Dark Phoenix flies up five places to Number 3 thanks to its first full week of digital sales.  Last week’s highest new entry, The Secret Life Of Pets 2, is down to Number 4 and former chart topper John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum falls to Number 5.

The record-breaking Avengers: Endgame spends another week in the Top 10 at Number 6, while Pokemon: Detective Pikachu drops two places to 7 and Godzilla: King Of The Monsters is at Number 8. Meanwhile the best-selling title of the year so far, Bohemian Rhapsody, climbs one place to Number 9 and Mary Poppins Returns makes a magical re-appearance, floating twenty-six places back up to 10.



On this week’s Official Film Chart online show, check out a hilarious clip from Disney’s Toy Story 4, which is available to Download & Keep from October 14.  Tom Hanks once again lends his voice to Sheriff Woody, who leads a gang of both new and familiar faces on an epic road trip.
