It's yet to be determined what changes will be made to the usual movie watching experience. Social distancing and mask wearing are likely a requirement.
But with evenings getting darker - it's the perfect activity to get out of the house.
In terms of new releases to look out for, "A Christmas Carol" starring Martin Freeman and Get Out's Daniel Kaluuya is one for the holiday watching.
"Dreamland", a romantic-crime drama starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Murphy's "The Prom" starring Meryl Streep and James Corden are some other films out in December.
