Pixars last movie had a tough time at the box office, it was a new franchise for the animation studio so had to prove itself then 2 weeks after release all cinemas closed due to the COVID-19 global pandemic.
Pixar tried to make the best of things by offering the movie for rent for £20, we dont know how successful this was but the movie is not available to buy and with schools closed the movie makes a number 2 debut.
After 3 weeks at the top that last of the Star Wars sage movies falls to number 3 this week.
