A slew of Hollywood blockbusters is going to hit Chinese theaters in an epic showdown before the end of this year, hopefully boosting the lukewarm Chinese market after a disappointing National Holiday season.

For many movie fans, November could be a carnival month as studios announced or the media leaked film release dates one by one in past two days.

Sony's alternative Marvel superhero action flick Venom will be released on Nov 9, Disney's The Nutcracker and the Four Realms is set for Nov 2 and its Ralph Breaks the Internet for Nov 23; meanwhile, Warner Bros.'s much-anticipated Harry Potter prequel Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald will hit Chinese screens on Nov 16 with its star-studded cast to attend the Chinese premiere at end of October, and the dark horse romance comedy that could resonate with the Chinese audience, Crazy Rich Asians will be released on Nov. 30.

Lionsgate's spy comedy The Spy Who Dumped Me will open this Friday and 20th Century Fox's sci-fi action movie The Predator will also join the race on Oct 26, while the Japanese animated detective blockbuster Detective Conan: Zero the Enforcer will make its presence on the Chinese market from Nov 9. and Universal Pictures' fantasy film "The House with a Clock in Its Walls" is set for Nov 1.
