HBO Max next month (February 2021) plans to add 132 new TV shows and movies to its streaming lineup, including two new theatrical film releases you can watch at home.
The new titles will include Judas and the Black Messiah, which will debut on HBO Max and in movie theaters on the same day. The film, which is based on a real-life story, stars LaKeith Stanfield as Bill O’Neal, an FBI informant who infiltrates the Black Panthers during the 1960s to get incriminatory evidence against its leaders. However, O’Neal soon regrets his mission when his work triggers a controversy homicide.

Also notable in February: Tom & Jerry, another Warner Bros. film that will premiere on the streaming service and in theaters on the same day. The movie reunites the warring cat and mouse as they do battle in a big hotel prior to an important wedding.
Both ‘same-day’ films will be available on HBO Max for 31 days after their premiere. They will be home exclusives for HBO Max.
Here is the complete list of new titles coming in February 2021 to HBO Max. (Titles with HBO in parenthesis means they will be on HBO, too.)
