Everything coming to Max (formerly HBO Max) in April 2024

The Sympathizer | Official Teaser 2 | Max

It’s only the end of March, but Max has been killing it in 2024. The last season of Curb Your Enthusiasm has been pretty, pretty, pre-tay good so far, and returning shows like True Detective: Night Country and Tokyo Vice, the Michael Mann-produced series starring Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe, have been rock-solid entertainment.

April promises even more quality content at a reasonable price. Recent 2024 Oscar-winner Robert Downey Jr. makes his limited series debut with The Sympathizer, while the controversial Holocaust movie The Zone of Interest makes its streaming debut at the beginning of the month. A little less serious is Conan O’Brien Must Go, a new travel series starring everyone’s favorite red-haired ex-Simpsons writer. There are more of them than you think!

What’s new on HBO and Max in July 2024
Godzilla and Kong race into battle in a still from Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

The monsters are coming to Max in July, and that's not even including the dragons from House of the Dragon season 2, which also continues this month. Instead, we mean the latest installment of the MonsterVerse, Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire, which was a box office hit earlier this year. Additionally, Max is adding Love Lies Bleeding, A24's sleeper flick starring Kristen Stewart and Katy O'Brian as a pair of lovers who get sucked into the criminal underworld.

Football fans should be happy to hear that Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants will provide a behind-the-scenes look at the team as it prepares for the new season this fall. Comic book fans also have two things to look forward to in July: The premiere of the Harley Quinn spinoff, Kite Man: Hell Yeah!, and the animated feature Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths Part Two. Max is also adding a lot of fan-favorite films on the 1st of the month, in addition to several unscripted series from Discovery's channels.

What’s new on Amazon Prime Video in July 2024
Jason Statham broods in a still from The Beekeeper

It may be too soon to call Amazon Prime Video the best streaming service of 2024, but if it keeps bringing the hits like it does in July then it's got a pretty strong case for the No. 1 position. Following The Boys season 4 and Oppenheimer, Prime Video could have slowed down. Instead, Amazon's streaming service is adding recent releases like The Beekeeper, Bob Marley: One Love, Lisa Frankenstein, and Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1.

Additionally, this month's Prime Video original movies include My Spy: The Eternal City and Space Cadet. There's also an unusually high number of classic films like Breakfast at Tiffany's, Dr. Strangelove, Easy Rider, From Here to Eternity, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Lawrence of Arabia, and The Bridge on the River Kwai. Franchises are also represented by most of the Rocky and Star Trek films.

The best sci-fi movies on Max right now
Delphine Chanéac and Sarah Polley in Splice.

What are we going to do about Max's sci-fi movies? Or more to the point, what is Max going to do about them? There are a number of strong films in the science fiction and fantasy category on Max, but the streamer's lineup has been stagnant lately. Aside from Dune: Part Two last month, Max hasn't had any major new titles in this section for months. The next big addition might be Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, but who knows when that's going to show up on Max?

In the meantime, we'll just have to work with what we have, which includes the 2009 sci-fi thriller Splice, as well as a the 2001 sci-fi rom-com, Kate & Leopold. There are of course, more prominent films among our selections for the best sci-fi movies on Max, including two of the modern Planet of the Apes films, two Star Trek flicks, and more. You can find all of those films by beaming down to read the rest of this post.
