UK Cinema Releases 20 and 27 November 2026: The Hunger Games, Focker-In-Law, Hexed and Minotaur

This guide covers the last two Fridays of November and the Wednesday between them, and was written on 3 November. Every film below is on Screen Daily's UK-Ireland release calendar, as updated on 2 November, and is confirmed for the same date by its distributor, the BFI or a cinema chain, named with each title; each event screening is on at least two lists, one of them a cinema chain's. Distributors are Screen Daily's. Titles we could not confirm that way are left out, and release dates move, so check your cinema before you book.

Screen Daily's calendar has more for both Fridays, among them Josephine (Curzon), The Match (Disney) and Arthur Christmas (Park Circus) on 20 November, and Ghost Soldier (Sony) on 27 November. We could not confirm those on a distributor's or a cinema chain's page, so they are left out; Flicks dates Ghost Soldier to 6 November instead.
