Everything New on HBO Max in August 2025

Barely a month after Superman officially kicked off the movie side of the new DC Universe, the TV side gets rolling with the second season of Peacemaker from James Gunn and star John Cena. The show premieres on August 21, with new episodes weekly through early October. According to the plot synopsis, “in season 2, Peacemaker discovers an alternate world where life is everything he wishes it could be. But this discovery also forces him to face his traumatic past and take the future into his own hands.”

Also on HBO Max in August: A new standup special from Marc Maron, a new season of Hard Knocks, this one about the Buffalo Bills, a new documentary series called The Yogurt Shop Murders, and the streaming premieres of Final Destination Bloodlines, Freaky Tales, and The Legend of Ochi.
