X-Men spin-off Logan is well on its way to being crowned the Number 1 DVD and Blu-ray in the UK this week.

Released on Monday (July 10) the Hugh Jackman epic, set in futuristic times, sees Wolverine unearth a laboratory manipulating the DNA of mutants. The dark, gritty action-adventure has so far shifted a whopping 121,000 copies in just three days.

So far ahead of the pack is Logan that it is in fact outselling the rest of the Top 20 combined, including last week's Number 1 Fifty Shades Darker (2), which it is outselling by ten copies to one.

Completing the sales flash Top 5 are former Number 1 The LEGO Batman Movie (3), a rising Moana that is up seven to Number 4, and Sing which holds firmly onto the same note at Number 5.

New entries and high climbers 

A further five new entries are hoping to secure a Top 40 place, and riding high is Dunkirk (6). The BBC drama from 2004 starring Benedict Cumberbatch is newly released to DVD ahead of Christopher Nolan's movie release of the same name.

This week's highest climber at today's midweek stage is Game of Thrones: Complete Seasons 1-6. Rising 78 places to Number 15, fans are rewatching the series in anticipation for the launch of the penultimate Season 7 which starts this Sunday (July 16) in the US.

BBC's Planet Earth 2 completely re-enters the chart at Number 19, Ice Cube comedy Fist Fight opens at 24, psychological thriller Elle is on course for Number 31, and Steven Seagal's End Of A Gun - which is, you guessed it, an action film - is bound for Number 34.
