The month ahead will bring the highly anticipated return of HBO hit Succession, Denis Villeneuve's long-delayed Dune movie, a prequel to The Sopranos, and (unsurprisingly) a lot of horror. In the gallery on this page, our editors have selected the most interesting TV and movie titles debuting at home in the next month, listed in order by premiere date.

▣ Gunda (2020) - Hulu, 10/11
Experimental, black-and-white, and G-rated, the highly acclaimed Gunda has been described (by the A.V. Club) as a "wordless documentary Babe" for its leisurely, lyrical look at the lives of various animals (a mother pig, a flock of chickens, a herd of cows) on a Norwegian farm.
