When it comes to the fall season, which entails a slightly lower degree of heat in our case, the movies being released are always good. This week we are taking a look at some of the biggest film titles coming out soon.

The sci-fi thriller “ ” premiered at the 78th Venice International Film Festival at the beginning of the month. Adapted from writer Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel of the same name, the two-part film features an ensemble cast including Timothee Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin and Zendaya to name a few. The film received positive reviews from critics and should be a hit with audiences worldwide.

The great Will Smith plays the role of tennis players Venus and Serena Williams’ father Richard in the movie “King Richard.” The
biographical drama film directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and written by Zach Baylin tells the story of the life of Richard Williams, the father and trainer of the two tennis sisters. It premiered at the 48th Telluride Film Festival and will be released in theatres in November. I am particularly looking forward to this one.

A film which has been receiving a lot of hype lately is “Spencer.” The film tells the tale of a Christmas holiday in the life of the late Diana, Princess of Wales. Kristen Stewart plays the Princess as she decides to leave her husband Prince Charles and life with the royal family. The movie also had its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival. There is no doubt this movie will be a success as people love anything to do with the British royal family.
