New Movies & TV Shows to Watch: November 2026

Spy thriller

Mood: Tense · Audience: Adult spy-thriller fans

Runtime: 93 minutes

An intelligence officer must investigate his own wife when she becomes a suspected traitor. Steven Soderbergh turns a marriage into an interrogation, with loyalty at home and loyalty to country pulling in opposite directions.

Cast: Cate Blanchett, Michael Fassbender, Marisa Abela

Directed by Steven Soderbergh

A Hulu library arrival; the film originally opened in 2025.

Why it fits: A 93-minute spy mystery suits an adult movie night with a firm finish time. Its marriage-and-loyalty premise gives you a specific question to follow; choose something lighter if that is not tonight’s mood.

Sports comedy

Mood: Light · Audience: Adult sports-comedy viewers

Runtime: Episodes vary; check the episode

Pryce Cahill moves from mentoring Santi to attempting his own professional comeback. As Santi faces new expectations, Pryce works with coach Amanda, played by Rhea Seehorn, and caddie Mitts to test what remains of his game.

Cast: Owen Wilson, Peter Dager, Marc Maron, Mariana Treviño, Rhea Seehorn

Created by Jason Keller

Season 2 premiered November 4 with two episodes; Apple schedules one episode each Wednesday through December 30. This is a weekly season, not a complete-season drop. The series first premiered in 2025.

Why it fits: Choose this if you want to follow a comeback one week at a time, especially if you already know the characters from Season 1. Skip it tonight if you want a complete story in one sitting; episode lengths vary.

Biographical drama

Mood: Thoughtful · Audience: Viewers interested in disability rights and history

Runtime: 127 minutes

Ruth Madeley portrays Judy Heumann as disability-rights protesters occupy a federal building in 1977. Siân Heder directs this account of collective action and the fight to make civil-rights protections enforceable.

Cast: Ruth Madeley, Mark Ruffalo, Dylan O’Brien

Directed by Siân Heder

Streaming November 13; the November 6 date is for select theaters.

Why it fits: Make room for a longer drama and a conversation afterward. The collective-action premise offers a concrete subject to engage with; at 127 minutes it is not the compact option in this list.

Coming-of-age drama

Mood: Thoughtful · Audience: Families with older children and underdog-story fans

Runtime: 106 minutes

A struggling boy gets an unexpected mentor when his injured Navy SEAL uncle stays with the family. Their summer training is about building confidence as well as physical strength.

Cast: Chris Pratt, Jude Hill, Linda Cardellini

Directed by McG

Streaming November 25, as confirmed in Apple’s October 27 trailer announcement.

Why it fits: The mentoring premise gives older children and adults a subject to discuss together. Check the PG-13 content guidance first; the 106-minute runtime is separate from whether the story suits your household.

Animated adventure

Mood: Light · Audience: Animation fans looking for a light adventure

Runtime: 88 minutes

Three mummies leave their hidden world and find themselves in modern London. The clash between ancient expectations and city life drives this animated adventure.

Cast: Sean Bean, Eleanor Tomlinson, Hugh Bonneville

Directed by Juan Jesús García Galocha

A Hulu library arrival of the 2023 film. A consistent U.S. certificate could not be verified in this check.

Why it fits: At 88 minutes, this is the shortest film in these November picks. Choose it for an animated fish-out-of-water adventure when time matters; check the title’s content guidance and its November 26 arrival before planning the night.

Anime / spy comedy

Mood: Adventure · Audience: Teen and adult action-anime viewers

Runtime: Episodes vary; check the episode

Taiyo’s marriage brings him into a family of spies, where protecting loved ones means learning a dangerous new profession. The ongoing season mixes family friction, romance, and espionage.

Cast: Reiji Kawashima, Kaede Hondo, Katsuyuki Konishi

Directed by Mirai Minato

Continuing weekly episode on November 29, not a season premiere. Hulu also lists new episodes November 1, 8, 15, and 22. Cast names are the original Japanese voices.

Why it fits: This continuing episode belongs on a catch-up plan for viewers already following the family-spy story. It is a less convenient entry point if you want a self-contained movie tonight.
