HOUSE OF GUCCI
Release date: 26 November
Who is involved: Ridley Scott directs Adam Driver, Lady Gaga, Al Pacino, Jared Leto, Salma Hayek, Jeremy Irons, Camille Cottin and Jack Huston.
What is it about: Arriving about a month after his OTHER big potential Oscar magnet, Ridley's likely-to-be-gorgeous thriller will recount the true story of Patrizia Reggiani (Gaga), the ex-wife of Maurizio Gucci (Driver), and how she plotted to kill him.
RESIDENT EVIL: WELCOME TO RACOON CITY
Release date: 3 December
Who is involved: Written and directed by Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down), starring Kaya Scodelario, Tom Hopper, Hannah John-Kamen, Robbie Amell, Neal McDonough and Donal Logue.
What is it about: We'll give you three guesses, but you're only going to need one... Yep, the zombie outbreak video game series is getting another big screen adaptation. Set in 1998, it will tie in directly with the first game, with the hopes of following the franchise's story a bit more strictly than the previous, Milla Jovovich-starring outings.
SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME
Release date: 17 December
Who is involved: Jon Watts (the first two Tom Holland Spider-Man movies), with Tom Holland, Zendaya, Marisa Tomei and more returning, and reportedly joined by Alfred Molina, J.K. Simmons, Benedict Cumberbatch and Jamie Foxx.
What is it about: Following on from his outing at the climax of Far From Home, as well as the multiverse-altering events at the end of Loki, the smart money is on a Spider-Verse storyline. Although that is still to be confirmed or denied by the head honchos at Marvel.
THE MATRIX 4
Release date: 22 December
Who is involved: Written and directed by Lana Wackowski (co-writer and co-director of the original Matrix trilogy), with Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss and Jada Pinkett Smith returning, and joined by Christina Ricci, Jonathan Groff, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Neil Patrick Harris.
What is it about: Well... it is a sequel to The Matrix... and that is all we know. And even that isn't necessarily 100% accurate. Even the title - The Matrix 4 - isn't right, as it appears to be called The Matrix in the early promotional materials, so... who knows?Explore more on these topics:
