What’s New on HBO Max in August 2022

When the last episode of Game of Thrones aired, the audience response was as brutal and exacting as trial by combat with the Mountain—the hot takes not only killed the show’s online reputation, they crushed its head and gouged out its eyes. Ever since, the internet at large has held a grudge like Cirsei, the general consensus being that the last season biffed it so hard, the franchise was forever tainted. So I’m sure none of those former fans will be watching the Aug. 21 HBO premiere of the prequel series House of the Dragon…right?

A long digression about the relative volume of unhappy Extremely Onliners versus the general public aside, Game of Thrones has definitely lost a bit of its luster, but it’s still a really big deal for HBO, which is why they worked so hard to develop a sexy looking spinoff (and why they are still trying to make a few more). And given that House of the Dragon, which goes back in time a few centuries to chart the rise of the dragon- and sibling-loving Targaryen dynasty, is from different writers and showrunners, it is perhaps worth giving the benefit of the doubt. I mean, there are still dragons. And Matt Smith is a truly funny wig!

If you are sticking to your guns, there are some other goodies on tap for HBO Max subscribers in August, including the streaming premieres of the Best Picture Oscar nominee Belfast (Aug. 15) and the acclaimed anime film Belle (Aug. 13).

The Harry Potter franchise is leaving HBO Max

This month’s list of films leaving HBO Max also includes a surprising departure: All eight films in the mainline Harry Potter series will disapparate from the lineup on Aug. 31. Given the Potter franchise was apparently once considered such a draw for HBO Max that it has its own Wizarding World hub, you have to wonder at the reason parent company Warner Bros. Discovery is letting them go. (J.K. Rowling’s bad opinions aside, I’d place a bet on “someone else paid more for the rights.”)

Here’s everything coming to and leaving HBO and HBO Max in August. Titles with (HBO) next to them are available on HBO and HBO Max; everything else is exclusive to HBO Max.
