Suggestions for film for 8 year old's movie party

DD is having party with a few friends where I'll be showing a movie at home. Obviously I'd like it to be something appropriate age wise and something they will hopefully all enjoy. I'm looking for recommendations (possibly coming out soon?). We have Amazon prime and Netflix and party is on 8th November.

Any recommendations of films that have gone down well with this age group gratefully received.

Currently watching the little vampire cartoon film. It’s a ‘u’. But quite ‘old’.
