This makes it a 2 week stay at the top for Deadpool and of course in the process Marvel (but not Disney) showing an ever strong fan base.
With a static top 3 it means that the highest new film of the week comes in at number 4, Alvin and his Chipmunks starring in Alvin and The Chipmunks The Road Chip.
The film made its debut on 12th February 2016 and entered the UK box office at number 2, kept off the top spot by Deadpool.
As with the other films in the series it enjoyed a relatively successful box office chart run staying for 8 weeks in total.
During that time it grossed a very nice £16.5 million in ticket sales, and could see the film get a 5th entry! In the UK it is the 262nd highest grossing movie, across the globe it didn't have quite the same impact and made $234.7 million.
The only other new film on the video chart this week is The Forest, a small hit from late February 2016.
