Following the tragic and unexpected death of actor Chadwick Boseman, Black Panther has risen to the top of the UK film chart.
Boseman's timeless performance of T'Challa wowed audiences and received rave reviews from critics upon its release in 2018.
It first re-entered the charts last week coming in at #9 and now a further seven days of sales and downloads have sent it into #1.
Elsewhere, family-flicks Sonic The Hedgehog and Trolls World Tour continue to perform well in at #2 and #3. Sonic has been in and around the Top 10 since it first entered the charts 22 weeks ago. Trolls, meanwhile, recently broke the UK film chart record for number of consecutive weeks at the top.
Meanwhile, 1917 and Joker maintain their status quo in #4 and #5. Joker has recently been added to the Sky Movies line-up which you can watch through use of a NOW TV Movie Pass.
Further afield, in a weekly update with few newcomers, classic 80s film The Goonies makes it in at #16 following its limited edition SteelBook blu-ray release. The same can also be said for Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey which makes it to #12.
The UK charts is made up of a combination of digital downloads and hard-copy sales. You can check out the top 40 in its entirety here.
