Big premieres — think “Harriet” and “Last Christmas” — and a new adult animated comedy are this month’s highlights.
HBO Max is slowly giving us more reasons to forget its predecessors ever existed (RIP HBO Go) by dropping a handful of new shows and theatrical releases this month. To recreate the moviegoing experience at home, we’ve got Harriet, Midway, and Last Christmas. To binge something funny, there’s Close Enough and Expecting Amy. And for some more familiar fare, there’s a new season of Room 104 to anticipate.
Here’s everything coming to (and leaving) HBO Max this July.
It’s kind of the perfect time to check out this Cynthia Erivo-starring biopic about famed abolitionist Harriet Tubman. Though we’re all probably familiar with Tubman’s story on the most basic of levels — she liberated hundreds of slaves through her Underground Railroad and her work as a spy for the Union — the film marks the first time her story is being told in full. And Erivo scored an Oscar nomination for her portrayal of the fearless freedom fighter, which should tell you just how good this movie is.
Jason Mantzoukas, Danielle Brooks, and Kimiko Glenn make up some of the voice cast for this new adult animated comedy landing on HBO Max this month. The show revolves around a millennial couple trying to raise their young daughter in L. A. When their friends — a pair of divorced narcissists — come to stay with them, their life quickly spirals out of control.
Comedian Amy Schumer documents her pregnancy journey in this new series for HBO Max. Schumer, who’s known for her give-no-f*cks humor takes the same approach to impending motherhood, unashamedly detailing all the highs and lows of what it’s like prepping for your first child.
