New To HBO Max In October 2020: More Anime, Batman, And Cats

HBO Max has a lot coming to the streaming service in the upcoming month.

Comments

While it's still really hard to watch HBO Max for some people, as there is not an app for Roku or Amazon Fire TV Sticks yet, there is a lot of binge-worth content coming to the streaming service which debuted earlier this year. Check out everything arriving and leaving HBO Max in October 2020.

On October 8, HBO Max is releasing another anime series to the service, The God of High School. Furthering the streaming service's partnership with Crunchyroll, the anime series follows Mori Jin, a 17-year old who is invited to compete in a martial arts tournament called The God of High School. The winner gets to have a wish granted by the shady corporation that runs the whole tournament.

Even though DC Universe is going through a tremendous transformation, many more DC superhero films are landing on HBO Max. On October 1, you have a solid list of superhero movies from DC to check out. This includes All-Star Superman, Catwoman, Constantine, Jonah Hex, Man of Steel, Son of Batman, and more.

Remember when everyone saw that trailer for Cats, and we all had a good chuckle about how silly it looked? Well, on October 10, you can watch the movie for yourself when it lands on HBO Max. Will you tell anyone you actually saw it is the real question.

However, not everything currently on HBO Max is staying forever. There are plenty of movies leaving as well. The bulk of the content making its exit from the service happens on October 31, and this includes many Batman animated movies along with a couple Lord of the Rings films.

Below, you'll find everything coming to HBO Max for the month of October as well as everything leaving.
