HBO HBO Max Max just released its August streaming lineup and there are a few original series worth getting excited for.
A second season of the flashy, LA Lakers biopic Winning Time arrives early in the month to deliver one of the most riveting sports rivalries of all time while Issa Rae’s hip hop comedy, Rap Sh!t brings the laughs as it embarks on a cross-country tour. More Abbott Elementary, a few great films from the Warner Bros. vault, and plenty of docuseries are also on the menu this month.
Here’s everything coming to (and leaving) Max this month.
Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty: Season 2 (streaming 8/6)
Magic Johnson (Quincy Isaiah) and the LA Lakers defend their title this season, facing off against familiar rivals like Larry Bird and the Boston Celtics. But the drama isn’t just reserved for the court. Season two of HBO’s breakout sports biopic sees everyone from Adrien Brody and John C. Reilly to Michael Chiklis and Jason Clarke pushing the Lakers to greatness as coaching shakeups and ownership succession questions threaten the magic happening in the paint.
Rap Sh!t: Season 2 (streaming 8/10)
Self-made rappers Mia and Shawna are hitting the road for a cross-country tour that promises the chance at superstardom if they can get past their dislike for their headlining artist and figure out their voice in an industry determined to make them conform.
Abbott Elementary: Season 2 (streaming 8/21)
Who knows when we might see a third season of this Emmy-winning comedy series so, for now, take comfort in the fact that you can re-watch all of season two on Max.
