What’s New in Max in May 2025

Posted on by

Max’s lineup includes the return of two of the streamer’s original comedy series in May. First up is the second installment of Conan O’Brien Must Go (May 8), an unscripted road trip series that reunites Conan with fans he previously met on his podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend . Three episodes of this season will be released weekly.

At the end of the month, the Sex and the City spinoff Just So… (May 29) returns for its third season, following the original SATC characters (plus a few extras) living in New York City in their 50s.

On the film side, Max makes his debut in the HBO original film Mountain Head (May 31), starring Steve Carrell, Jason Schwartzman, Corey Michael Smith and Ramy Youssef as billionaire friends facing a financial crisis. “Mountain Head” was written and directed by “Legacies” creator Jesse Armstrong. In May, Max will also premiere Oscar-winning A24 drama Brutalist (May 16).

Finally, the new two-part documentary Pee-wee as Himself (May 23) tells the personal and professional story of Paul Reubens, who played the iconic Pee-wee Herman. The documentary series “100 Foot Wave” (May 1) also returns for a third season, with five episodes airing weekly.

Max subscribers will also be able to watch a variety of live sports, including NHL and NBA playoff games, as well as several MLB games.
