Now that Prime Minister Boris Johnson has announced England will be going into a full lockdown from Thursday November 5th, we’ve been taking a look at what it means for new and upcoming film releases.

Fortunately, plenty of those we’re excited to see this month - with the exception of the new James Bond flick No Time To Die - will still be dropping, thanks to being originals on streaming platforms.

Browsing through the coming soon sections of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+, here are all of the movies we’re excited to see in November 2020.

Legendary toymaker Jeronicus Jangle (Forest Whitaker) impresses the masses with his fanciful inventions, but when his trusted apprentice (Keegan-Michael Key) steals his most prized creation, it's up to his intelligent granddaughter (Madalen Mills) to put a long-forgotten invention to the test to heal old wounds and bring back some much-needed magic.

This musical adventure features a soundtrack with original songs by John Legend, Philip Lawrence, Davy Nathan, Usher and Kiana Ledé.
