If you’re a Max subscriber (or HBO subscriber, for that matter), there are a few big titles coming in May that you’re definitely going to want on your radar. For example: Jesse Armstrong, the creator of Succession has a new original movie at the end of the month called Mountainhead, starring Steve Carell and Ramy Youssef. The film, per Max, is about “a group of billionaire friends get together against the backdrop of a rolling international crisis.”
Also coming in May: New episodes of the Sex and the City sequel series And Just Like That…, and Conan O’Brien’s travel series, Conan O’Brien Must Go. Plus, recent Oscar winner The Brutalist starring Adrien Brody and Guy Pearce starts streaming on Max next month as well.
Also if you do use Max, keep in mind there is a bunch of live sports on there as well now. In May, that includes some NBA playoff games, NHL playoff games, weekly baseball games, NASCAR, soccer, tennis, and weekly editions of All Elite Wrestling’s Dynamite and Collision.
Here’s the full list of what’s coming to Max in May 2025…
