“The Suicide Squad,” “Reminiscence,” “Obama: In Pursuit of a More Perfect Union,” Season 3 of “Titans,” “Sweet Life: Los Angeles,” And “Hard Knocks: The Dallas Cowboys” Arrive On HBO Max This August
August is the last month of the summer but HBO Max is making sure to keep things hot all month long. Here’s a list of all the titles coming to HBO Max in August including the highly anticipated “The Suicide Squad” directed by James Gunn and “Titans” Season 3. Before we dive into that, here are our choices of shows and films you must watch on the streamer this coming month.
James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad” (2021):
From writer/director James Gunn comes Warner Bros. Pictures’ superhero action-adventure “The Suicide Squad,” featuring a collection of the most degenerate delinquents in the DC lineup—including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and everyone’s favorite psycho, Harley Quinn—who will do anything to get out of prison—even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X on a do-or-die mission.
“TITANS” Season 3:
Titans follows young heroes from across the DC Universe as they come of age and find where they belong. In season three, circumstances draw our heroes to Gotham City, where they will reunite with old friends and face new threats.
Reminiscence starring Hugh Jackman (2021):
Nick Bannister (Jackman), a private investigator of the mind, navigates the darkly alluring world of the past by helping his clients access lost memories. Living on the fringes of the sunken Miami coast, his life is forever changed when he takes on a new client, Mae (Ferguson). A simple matter of lost and found becomes a dangerous obsession. Both Warner Bros. Pictures films will be available in theaters and on HBO Max the same day. Streaming only on the $14.99/month Ad-Free HBO Max plan for 31 days from their theatrical release.
