May the force be with you, as Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker debuts at Number 1 on the Official Film Chart on digital downloads only.
In the latest episode of the legendary franchise, Rey, Finn and Poe Dameron are back leading the resistance against Kylo Ren and the First Order, as the evil Emperor Palpatine returns from the dead. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker enters with 181,000 digital download sales in its first week.
Last week’s Number 1, Jumanji: The Next Level is knocked to Number 2, while Sonic the Hedgehog - starring Ben Schwartz as Sonic and James Marsden as his new human best friend - holds its place at 3. Frozen 2 drops two places to Number 4.
