If you thought you were going to get out and about this spring instead of sitting inside watching your screen of choice, think again! Max just released its June 2024 programming lineup, and you’re not going to want to miss these offerings.
If you love Hacks, star Hannah Einbinder’s first stand-up comedy special is coming out this month. We’re also excited to see the new comedy series Fantasmas and the new A24 movie Problemista, both written by and starring the great Julio Torres. Other new additions to the Max library include documentaries about the quirky “king” of the world’s largest renaissance faire (produced by Josh and Benny Safdie), and a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the life of Stevie Van Zandt, full time rock star and part time actor.
Horror fans will love the lineup on that front, including all three Open Water movies, Fright Night, and Evil Dead. One of HBO’s flagship original drama series is coming back as well: House of the Dragon returns for its sophomore season on June 16.
Keep reading for everything coming to Max in June 2024; as always, our recommendations are in bold. For more curated streaming suggestions, click over to our streaming page to see what’s hitting all of the major streaming platforms this month.
