December Preview: 16 TV Shows & New Movies to Watch at Home
In the gallery above, our editors have selected the coming month's most promising TV shows (including limited series and specials) as well as movies available to watch at home through VOD and digital purchases, listed in order by premiere date. Many of these titles haven't been reviewed yet (and we haven't seen them), but they are the most intriguing new releases on paper, at least, arriving in December.
Film debuts December 4 on Netflix. Director David Fincher's first feature since 2014's Gone Girl is a 1930s-set biopic centering on screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz as he attempts to complete what would become his most famous screenplay, Citizen Kane. Shot with vintage equipment, the black-and-white film stars Gary Oldman as Mankiewicz and Tom Burke as Kane director Orson Welles, plus Amanda Seyfried, Charles Dance, and Lily Collins. While its current Metascore suggests a good rather than great film, expect plenty of Oscar buzz over the coming months.
