There might only be two months to go before the end of the year – but there are still loads of big film releases to pack in before 2026 is out, and November has an especially busy schedule.
There are plenty of big films that look set to play a role in next year's awards season – from acclaimed foreign-language titles such as La Bola Negra, Fjord and Minotaur to the much-hyped Elizabeth Holmes documentary You Can See Everything from Lance Oppenheim and Nathan Fielder.
Meanwhile, other films that are Oscar-tipped include Martin McDonagh's Wild Horse Nine – whose lead John Malkovich is currently the best actor frontrunner – and crowd-pleasing Sylvester Stallone biopic I Play Rocky.
And there are several other new releases as well, including Disney's latest animation Hexed, new Hunger Games prequel Sunrise on the Reaping and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood sequel The Further Misadventures of Cliff Booth.
To help you pick out the highlights, we've put together a selection of some of the best films to watch this month – check out the video above or read on for our choices.
