Check out the full list below of the content coming to and leaving HBO Max in May 2021.
Get ready to hone your survival skills with Academy Award® winner Angelina Jolie in the intense thriller “Those Who Wish Me Dead,” debuting in theaters and on HBO Max May 14. The Warner Bros. film follows Hannah (Jolie), a smoke jumper still reeling from the loss of three lives she failed to save from a fire when she comes across a traumatized 12-year-old boy with nowhere else to turn.
Sci-fi lovers can rejoice as Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet” starring John David Washington and Robert Pattinson makes its streaming debut. To top it off, “Wonder Woman 1984” flies back to HBO Max in the month, giving viewers another opportunity to catch Diana Prince wield her Lasso of Truth against a new set of villains.
An outstanding line-up of original programming also arrives this May, kicking-off with new comedy series “That Damn Michael Che” and “Hacks,” which explores a dark mentorship that forms between Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), a legendary Las Vegas comedian, and an entitled, outcast 25-year-old (Hannah Einbinder). This month also brings season two of “Legendary” and two-part documentary “The Crime of the Century” from Academy Award®-Winning director Alex Gibney. In addition, the long awaited “Adventure Time: Distant Lands – Together Again” special also makes its way onto HBO Max alongside the limited series finale of “Mare of Easttown,” the Part One finale of “The Nevers,” the film premiere of “Oslo,” and the season four debut of the HBO Max International drama “Gomorrah” premiere.
Queue up some A-list movies including “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,” “When Harry Met Sally,” “Dumb & Dumber,” “Life of Pi” “The Personal History of David Copperfield,” and “Magic Mike.”
On May 6-9, the 2021 TCM Classic Film Festival comes to HBO Max, featuring an extensive lineup of more than 100 films and over 30 special guests across Turner Classic Movies premiere on the platform. Film fans of all ages will love this deep dive into classic films paired with exclusive talent interviews and behind the scenes access.
