What’s Coming To HBO Max In October 2026
This coming October, HBO Max subscribers in the United States will be able to enjoy plenty of new original programming such as “War”, and “Rage”. There will also be other new original shows and documentaries, plus licensed content, including many popular films including “A Nightmare on Elm Street” and “Ocean’s Eleven”.
Disney currently offers a special bundle for HBO Max with Disney+ and Hulu, which is priced at $21.99 for the ad-supported tiers of each platform, or $34.99 for the ad-free version of the bundle.
Here are some highlights of what’s coming to HBO Max in October:
War
WAR is 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.
The Rage
Several women become trapped in a market-driven system where everything is liable to become a lucrative spectacle. They will all have to face these harsh situations with the only weapon they have left: rage.
The Housemaid
This wildly entertaining thriller starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, based on the best-selling book. From director Paul Feig, the film plunges audiences into a twisted world where perfection is an illusion, and nothing is as it seems. Trying to escape her past, Millie (Sweeney) accepts a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Nina (Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar). But what begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something far more dangerous – a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power. Behind the Winchesters’ closed doors lies a world of shocking twists that will leave you guessing until the very end.
Here’s the rundown for October:
