There’s war between friends and friendship between warriors, and HBO Max brings you both this September. On one side of the aisle is the A24 comedy Friendship, in which a budding bromance turns toxic. Then we have the tense docudrama Warfare, following a platoon of Navy SEALS on a dangerous mission. Those movies alone are worth the price of admission, if you ask us, and that’s not to mention the licensed classics and series debuts. Here’s all the best stuff coming to HBO Max in September 2025.

New Movies on Max in September 2025
From original movies to cinematic milestones, Max has something for everyone. Here’s a quick look at some upcoming highlights.
Se7en
Release Date: 1 September
Director David Fincher’s brutal crime drama is one of the few movies that left us truly shell-shocked when we first watched it. Putting its darker-than-dark ending aside, the film remains a completely gripping and atmospheric experience from the get-go. Set in an unnamed city, it follows two detectives (Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman) as they hunt for a sadistic serial killer. Watch it for the first time or watch it again because this one holds up.
Friendship
Release Date: 5 September
As the creator of the sketch series I Think You Should Leave, Tim Robinson has proved himself a master of awkward comedy. But can his unique brand of cringe sustain itself for the course of a full-length feature? This recent A24 movie says it can, and plenty of viewers appear to agree. He plays a struggling suburban husband and father, whose affection for a new friend (Paul Rudd) goes to uncomfortable extremes. We’ll be firing it up as soon as it lands.
Warfare
Release Date: 12 September
Alex Garland teamed up with former Navy SEAL Ray Mendoza to co-direct this visceral look at modern warfare. It takes place during the 2006 Battle of Ramadi and trails a platoon as they descend into the heart of Iraq on a deadly mission. Everything from the bouts of boredom to the threadbare narrative seeks to conjure an authentic experience, as remembered by those who were actually there. Don’t miss it.
Best New TV Shows on Max in September 2025
Remember when Rick & Morty was the greatest thing since sliced bread? Let’s bring back some of that fervent enthusiasm as we stream the latest episodes. There’s also a new miniseries coming your way from the creator of Mare of Easttown. Here are your highlights.
Rick & Morty, Season 8
Release Date: 1 September
The animated sci-fi series about a crazed scientist and his less-crazed grandson continues in stride, even if the show doesn’t consistently reach the same heights as it once did. Season 8 plays upon movies such as The Matrix, Benjamin Button, and even Nomadland across 10 action-packed episodes. The season opens and closes on a high note with a few classics sprinkled in between. Fire it up and rediscover your love for drunken intergalactic misadventure.
Task
Release Date: 7 September
We didn’t enjoy Mare of Easttown as much as others did, but that won’t stop us from checking out this limited series from the same creator. It takes place in the working-class suburbs of Philadelphia and centres around a string of violent robberies. Mark Ruffalo plays the head of an FBI task force that’s been assigned to the case. So goes a game of cat-and-mouse with socio-economic overtones and heaps of interpersonal drama (one might assume).
Things to Consider for Max
With a catalogue of shows, movies and lifestyle documentaries to envy, Max has some top-tier programming, but you’ll also be paying on the high end to access it. You’ll be able to download shows for offline viewing if you pay for one of the ‘ad free’ tiers, and can view content in up to 4K resolution if you pay up for Max’s Premium tier.
Compared to some of the other services out there, though, Max’s newer content might feel a bit thin if you’re not all that keen on HBO’s shows, but there are plenty of classics to fall back on.
How Much Does Max Cost in Australia?
Max subscriptions start at $11.99 per month (with ads) in Australia.
The ad-free Max Premium subscription is priced at $21.99 per month, and this is comparable with Netflix Premium ($25.99/month) as it offers the ability to stream on four devices at once, stream in 4K UHD, Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision, and HDR 10 on select titles. Finally, you can make 100 downloads to watch when internet access isn’t possible.
