Earlier this month, we took a look at the most anticipated movies of fall 2023. But now, it’s time to look ahead at all of the upcoming movies set for release in late 2023 and early 2024.
As you may have heard, the word out of Hollywood is that the WGA and the AMPTP have reached a tentative deal to end the writers’ strike. Presumably ending the SAG-AFTRA strike will be the next thing on the agenda. This is important to keep in mind for the upcoming movies because all films and TV shows have been at a standstill for months, and the 2024 release dates are tentative at best. That’s one of the reasons why the 2024 schedule looks so empty at the moment. There’s a lot of work that needs to be done by both the writers and the actors before a lot of these movies are going to be ready, so don’t be too shocked if the release dates change again. Some of them could even slip into 2025.

For now, let’s just celebrate the potential end of labor strife in Hollywood and start making plans for our movie nights this year and beyond.
If you have to watch one (HBO) Max movie in November 2024, stream this one
This month's selection was an HBO original movie in 2003, but it was made on a relatively low budget for the independent film circuit. In the era before comic-book movies arrived multiple times per year, American Splendor bucked the trend by treating its subject and creator, Harvey Pekar, as a man who was extraordinary because he was so ordinary. The real Pekar was just a filing clerk who managed to make a name for himself in comics by writing short stories about his life and the people he encountered, which he had drawn up by artists.
While Pekar and members of his family and friends appear as themselves in American Splendor, they are used primarily as commentators on the dramatization of their lives. Co-directors Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini cast Paul Giamatti in the lead as Harvey Pekar at a moment when Giamatti's career in Hollywood was beginning to really take off. And his performance as Pekar is one of the big reasons why you should watch American Splendor in November.

Hulu brings the action like few other streaming services can. That's because it can draw upon the vast cinematic library of 20th Century Studios, while also bringing in R-rated action flicks from other studios that Disney+ wouldn't touch. Each month, Hulu adds a number of new or returning titles that bolster its action lineup. These are the three action movies that you need to watch in November.
Our choices include an underrated video game adaptation, one of our favorite Nicolas Cage movies, and a sequel to one of 20th Century Studios' most famous franchises.
