It was very close but Disney's Enchanted cast the right spell and beat out WB's I Am Legend in the DVD races this week. The film narrowly triumphed over the Smith vehicle to nail down the No. 1 spot on the latest DVD sales chart for the week ended March 23, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"Legend" earned $256.2 million at the box office, more than twice as much as Enchanted, which grossed $127.8 million.
"Legend" did debut at No. 1 on Home Media Magazine's video rental chart, with estimated rental earnings of $10.1 million. Enchanted bowed at No. 3 with $8.5 million. Last week's champ, Oscar winner No Country for Old Men, slipped to No. 2 with $9.2 million, bringing its total to $19.4 million.
Atonement debuted at No. 4 on the sales chart, and at No. 5 on the rental chart with estimated earnings of $7.3 million.
"Legend" was the week's top Blu-ray Disc seller, moving four times as many copies as Enchanted.
