Film’s tiny, fast-talking king directs his post–De Niro muse, Leonardo DiCaprio, as a flamboyant, beyond-rich stockbroker caught in a web of corruption. Cue the Stones tunes. Nov. 15.

The former Bourne director, who gave action movies a shot in the arm, directs the tense, true-life story of the 2009 hijacking of an American cargo ship by Somali pirates. Tom Hanks, as the eponymous captain, keeps his crew safe as he awaits his inevitable Oscar nom. Oct. 11.

Best of Fall 2013 Movies: Spike Jonze: Her
Spike Jonze: Her
The twisted mind behind Being John Malkovich and Where the Wild Things Are directs the equally weird Joaquin Phoenix as a nerd who falls in love with a computer’s voice (with Scarlett Johansson as the sexiest OS ever). Nov. 20.
