‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ achieves remarkable Official Film Chart feat

James Cameron’s return to the world of Pandora continues to be an immovable force at the summit of the Official Film Chart.

For a third consecutive week, Avatar: Fire and Ash holds the Number 1 position, proving that the franchise still remains a primary draw for home audiences.

The chart saw significant movement this week from films rooted in celebrated literature. The most notable climber is Hamnet, which surged six places to reach a new peak at Number 2.

The adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s novel has gained steady momentum, captivating viewers with its poignant exploration of the family life and tragic grief that eventually informed William Shakespeare’s most famous works.

Similarly, the 2026 reimagining of Wuthering Heights moved up three spots to Number 4. This latest interpretation of Emily Brontë’s tale of obsession on the Yorkshire moors continues to find a strong audience, holding its own against modern psychological thrillers like The Housemaid, which maintains its presence at Number 5.

The musical phenomenon Wicked: For Good has an impressive chart run, climbing to Number 3. Having already spent four non-consecutive weeks at the top.

The week’s highest new entry belongs to Reminders of Him, arriving at Number 9 which is based on the bestselling novel by Colleen Hoover, the romantic drama has struck a chord with viewers looking for emotional, character-driven storytelling.
