No change at number one on this week’s UK film chart meaning that Paddington 2 stays at the top with cinema takings of £1,690,027 and gross to date figures of £29,332,318 which will please Studiocanal immensely and give Warner Bros hope for the US release in January which they are distributing. To put that into some context Paddington 2 is playing in 661 cinemas compared to the tenth place film Stronger, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and this week’s only new entry inside the top 10 which in currently showing in only 147.
Elsewhere drama Wonder moves up one place from number four to three meaning Justice League drops down. The Disaster Artist jumps from number thirteen last week up to number six this week largly because it’s now showing in 348 compared to only 22 last week.
