Digital Spy previews five of the must-see movies for November below.
Immortals
Release Date: November 11
Why you should see it: A chance to see Henry Cavill before he hits the stratosphere as Superman, Immortals promises some dazzling visuals from director Tarsem Singh, epic scenery chewing from Mickey Rourke as villain King Hyperion and some bone-crunching action. Yes, it all looks a bit like 300 and Clash of the Titans, but the stunning trailers have certainly ramped up the anticipation levels.
The Rum Diary
Release Date: November 11
Why you should see it: As if seeing Johnny Depp outside of his Jack Sparrow comfort zone wasn't tantalising enough, The Rum Diary also marks the filmmaking return of Withnail & I director Bruce Robinson after a 19-year absence. With a Hunter S Thompson adaptation no less! Depp struck gold playing the gonzo author in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, so a second spin in the role - albeit as Thompson alias Paul Kemp - is something to look forward to.
Wuthering Heights
Release Date: November 11
Why you should see it: Oscar-winning British director Andrea Arnold follows up her acclaimed drama Fish Tank with Wuthering Heights, her unique take on Emily Brontë's tragic tale of Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliffe. Skins' Kaya Scodelario is Cathy, while newcomer James Howson is the brooding Heathcliff. The film itself will likely divide viewers and critics, but we took a shine to it after seeing it at the London Film Festival.
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1
Release Date: November 18
Why you should see it: Now that the Harry Potter series has closed its doors, it's down to Twilight to emerge as the fantasy franchise of choice. Breaking Dawn - Part 1 will see Bella (Kristen Stewart) marry Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), sleep with him and then fall pregnant with his potentially deadly vampire baby! The movie has been too hot to handle for some, with scenes of Edward's "graphic thrusting" left on the cutting room floor!
Moneyball
Release Date: November 25
Why you should see it: This Brad Pitt movie almost didn't happen after Steven Soderbergh exited the director's chair just days before it was set to start shooting. Thankfully, Capote's Bennett Miller stepped in to save the day for this true-life baseball drama, which sees Pitt and Jonah Hill assemble a misfit group of players and take them on a record-breaking run. With Aaron Sorkin on co-writing duties, expect some sharp repartee amid the walking and talking.
