Metacritic 26 October 2026 has updated its detailed calendar of film releases for 2026–2027. The site tracks theatrical, VOD and streaming release dates daily, and the fresh version covers the end of October and the beginning of November.
Among the key premieres on 27 October is “The Dog Stars,” directed by Ridley Scott, from Disney/20th Century Studios, in the action-adventure/sci-fi/thriller genre. Also coming out are the animated “Forgotten Island” from Universal/Dreamworks Animation and the horror-comedy “Ghost in the Cell,” directed by Joko Anwar.
28 October on Prime Video, Sacha Baron Cohen’s comedy “Ali G: Who Iz I?” launches. Documentary films arrive in limited release, including “Closure” and “The Eyes of Ghana.”
29 October Netflix will release the drama “You, Me, Us.” On 30 October, the action-comedy-horror “Christmas at the Kringles,” the thriller “The Mongoose” and the sci-fi/rom-com “Wicker” open wide.
Among other releases on 30 October are the documentary “Everest: The Other Side” in IMAX and the drama-thriller “Gentle Monster” from Netflix. On 1 November, Fathom Entertainment will hold a special screening of “V for Vendetta” of 2006.
3 November Paramount will present the comedy-thriller “Bad Apples,” and A24 the action-drama “Primetime.” Sony is preparing a reboot of “Resident Evil,” directed by Zach Cregger.
The calendar includes both major studio projects and indie releases, documentaries and restorations such as David Lynch’s “Wild at Heart.” The update reflects the dynamics of distribution: many films receive a simultaneous or rapid streaming release.
Viewers can rely on Metacritic scores where available, and on trailers. The calendar helps with planning what to watch amid a packed autumn slot.
Even more updates on dates and platforms are expected in the coming days. This is especially useful for those who follow international and independent cinema.
