Tenet topped the box office for the eighth successive weekend, the first film to achieve such a feat since Avatar in 2009-10. It has now overtaken Little Women to become the third biggest film of 2020.
Event cinema climbed back into the top five, with Michael Ball & Alfie Boe: Back Together taking second spot. It’s a recording of the duo’s final show of their UK tour at the O2 Arena and it only played on Saturday and Sunday and topped the box office on both occasions.
Saint Maud opened in second last week and fell to third this week and with Halloween still 12 days away, it will be hoping to hold up well over the next couple of weeks. After We Collided again came in fourth and it’s still the second biggest film post-lockdown. Cats & Dogs: Paws Unite rounded out the top five.
Outside of the top five, the re-release of Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy comedy, Hocus Pocus, increased on last weekend’s total by 106 and you’d expect it to have a solid half term week too. Documentary I Am Greta, about Greta Thunberg was the only other new entry in the top 15, opening in eighth.
Comscore is reporting that the number of sites open in the UK & Ireland this weekend was 481.
