Elsinore to The Hunger Games: 12 of the best films to watch in November

1. The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth - This spin-off comedy-thriller is based on the laidback stuntman role played by Brad Pitt in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019). The film is directed by David Fincher and set in 1977. It premiered on 25 November in the UK, US, and Canada.

2. The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping - This film is a prequel to Suzanne Collins' bestselling dystopian novels. It is set 40 years after The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (2023) and 24 years before Katniss's adventures. The movie stars Joseph Zada as a younger Woody Harrelson character, Ralph Fiennes as President Snow, and other actors reprising their roles from the original films. It is released on 19 and 20 November internationally.

3. Elsinore - This film tells the story of Ian Charleson's last stage performance before he passed away due to AIDS. He played the demanding role of Hamlet at London's National Theatre. Andrew Scott stars as Charleson, accompanied by Olivia Colman as his doctor and Billie Piper as his best friend. The film is directed by Simon Stone and written by Stephen Beresford. It is expected to receive Oscar nominations and was released on 20 November in the US, and 25 November in the UK.
