New to Max in July 2025

One of the most anticipated additions to Max this summer is Sinners, the record-breaking original film from writer-director Ryan Coogler, per DenofGeek. Known for acclaimed hits like Fruitvale Station, Creed, and the Black Panther films, Coogler has finally delivered a wholly original idea, and the results are staggering. Sinners has already become the highest-grossing Max original film of the decade, and now, subscribers get to stream it beginning July 4.

The film's success has been called a cultural phenomenon, not just for its gripping story, but for how it blends Coogler’s signature emotional resonance with timely social commentary. It marks a major creative milestone for the filmmaker, solidifying his influence across both theaters and streaming.

A24 Delivers With Originals and Indies

Max's partnership with A24 continues to bring exciting additions. This month, the platform welcomes three compelling films from the indie powerhouse: On Becoming a Guinea Fowl, Opus, and Death of a Unicorn. The first, arriving July 4, is a critically praised dramedy with strong festival buzz. Opus, landing July 11, stars Ayo Edebiri in a haunting psychological thriller that’s already turning heads. Death of a Unicorn, releasing July 25, offers a twisted dark fantasy tale with a standout cast led by Jenna Ortega and Paul Rudd.

Each of these films builds on A24’s reputation for balancing eccentricity with emotional depth, making July a particularly rich month for fans of boundary-pushing cinema.

Billy Joel Doc, Mortal Kombat Legacy, and More

Music fans will get a two-part treat in Billy Joel: And So It Goes, an intimate HBO Original documentary exploring the singer’s life, heartbreaks, and legendary songwriting. The first installment drops July 18, followed by the second on July 25.

In a nod to nostalgia and gaming culture, Max is also loading up with every Mortal Kombat title in its catalog starting July 1. The full franchise — from the 1995 classic to the animated Mortal Kombat Legends — will be available, offering fans a chance to catch up ahead of the theatrical release of Mortal Kombat II this October.

Reality TV, food favorites like Beat Bobby Flay and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, and new seasons of Teen Titans Go! and Welcome to Plathville round out a loaded July.
