Elf Ends Top Gun: Maverick’s Record-Breaking Reign

Elf Ends Top Gun: Maverick's Record-Breaking Reign

Elf returns to Number 1 on the Official Film Chart, two years after its last stint at the top.

Thanks to the recent chilly weather, fans of the film have been revisiting it across disc and digital as they gear up for the festive season. It previously spent three weeks at Number 1 back in December 2020.

This means Top Gun: Maverick’s impressive run at Number 1 has ended after nine total weeks at the chart peak, the last five of which were consecutive. It finishes at Number 2 today.



Black Adam debuts at Number 3, this week’s highest new entry. The film stars Dwayne Johnson as the eponymous DC Comics character, alongside Aldis Hodge, Pierce Brosnan, Noah Centineo and more in this action fantasy.

Climbing two spots is the 2018 animated adaption of The Grinch, starring Benedict Cumberbatch, which sees its highest placing of the 2022 season so far at Number 4.

Downton Abbey: A New Era (5) and Jurassic World: Dominion (6) both drop one place, while biopic Elvis tumbles to Number 7.

The Polar Express is our next Christmas classic to land in this week’s Top 10, climbing four places to Number 8. At Number 9 is another brand new entry, David Bowie documentary Moonage Daydream, which explores the musical legend’s creative and musical journey over the years.

Finally, Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore drops three to round off the countdown at Number 10.
