The big new series on HBO Max in October is War, which the streamer describes as “a high-stakes, legal drama following the lives of London’s most powerful lawyers as firms Cathcarts & Sons and Taylor & Byrne clash over a headline-grabbing legal battle, drawing ambitious young lawyer Jonathan “Johnny” Warren (Archie Renaux) into a ruthless world where ambition is currency, betrayal is strategy, and winning is everything.” (I hate when ambition is currency. But I love when betrayal is strategy, so it kinda works out.)

Also new on HBO Max next month: Recent A24 films The Invite and The Death of Robin Hood, plus a documentary about Pittsburgh Steelers star Kordell Stewart, and a new Kate Berlant comedy special.

If that’s not enough for you, here’s the full list of movies and series coming to HBO Max in October 2026.
