A Quiet Place Part II

imdb

Release date: October 1

In this sequel to the nail-biting 2018 hit, we are taken on a flashback to when sound-sensitive aliens first landed on Earth, causing chaos and carnage.

She and her children venture out to band with other survivors while dealing with their own traumas.

No Time to Die

MGM

Release date: October 7

Daniel Craig’s fifth and last outing as 007 sees the now-retired agent briefly going back into action to chase after yet another mysterious baddie who plans to cause chaos with destructive new technology.

The Suicide Squad

Warner Bros

Release date: October 1

Don’t confuse this with the critically-panned 2016 attempt at giving life to a troop of crazy DC supervillains back in 2016. The Suicide Squad (as opposed to just “Suicide Squad”) is the sequel-slash-reboot, as well as an ambitious undertaking to overshadow the reputation of the original incarnation. It’s directed by James Gunn (you know, of Marvel’s Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy fame), so it would be interesting to see how the movie pans out.
