Hard Knocks: In Season With The Afc North (Tuesday, Dec. 3)
For the first time, "Hard Knocks" will chronicle an entire NFL division, capturing the battle for the AFC North crown during the season's final six weeks and playoffs. The Emmy-winning series offers all-access coverage of the Steelers, Ravens, Bengals, and Browns, featuring star players like Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, and TJ Watt. Fans will witness the intense competition and behind-the-scenes drama like never before.
Creature Commandos (Thursday, Dec. 5)
Creature Commandos follows a team of monstrous outcasts recruited for high-risk missions deemed too dangerous for humans. In a world on the edge, they are the last, and most unlikely, option for saving the day.
Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story (Saturday, Dec. 7)
Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story tells the inspiring journey of the actor who went from a rising star to a global icon and disability rights advocate. The documentary explores his life before and after the 1995 horseback riding accident that left him paralyzed. Through Reeve's own words and insights from family and friends, it offers a powerful portrait of a man who redefined heroism beyond his famous Superman role. It is one of the top highlights coming to Max in December.
Nature Of The Crime (Tuesday, Dec. 10)
This documentary explores the little-understood parole process in the US criminal justice system, focusing on two men convicted of murder as teens in New York. As they prepare for their parole interviews, the film delves into their reflections on their crimes, rehabilitation, and the decision-making criteria. It also highlights another incarcerated man in Connecticut navigating the reformed parole system, which now includes public observation and enhanced legal protections.
Bookie Season 2 (Thursday, Dec. 12)
From Emmy-nominated creator Chuck Lorre, Bookie is a darkly comedic series following veteran Los Angeles bookie Danny (Sebastian Maniscalco) as he faces the looming threat of legalized sports gambling. With his unpredictable clients and a team that includes his best friend Ray (Omar J. Dorsey), sister Lorraine (Vanessa Ferlito), and reformed drug dealer Hector (Jorge Garcia), Danny navigates a chaotic business while making risky bets of his own. It is one of the most highly anticipated releases on Max in December.
Fast Friends (Thursday, Dec. 19)
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Friends, Max is premiering Fast Friends, a four-part fan challenge special hosted by comedian Whitney Cummings. Filmed at The Friends Experience: The One in New York City, the show takes fans on a fast-paced journey through iconic sets like Rachel and Monica’s apartment and Central Perk. With trivia, puzzles, and games, contestants will race through their favorite moments from the series, vying for the title of Ultimate Fast Friends Champion.
Rose Matafeo: On And On And On (Thursday, Dec. 19)
Rose Matafeo: On and On and On marks the return of the Starstruck creator/star to Max with her second stand-up special. Drawing from a 16,000-word note on her phone, Matafeo humorously reflects on everything from dating in her 20s vs. 30s to navigating friendships and family dynamics. Filmed live at London’s Britten Theatre, her hourlong set explores aging, online relationship coaching, and the challenges of endings, all wrapped in her signature self-deprecating style.
Juror #2 (Friday, Dec. 20)
The film centers on Justin Kemp (Nicholas Hoult), a family man serving as a juror in a high-profile murder trial. As the case unfolds, Justin faces a moral dilemma that could influence the jury’s verdict, putting him at a crossroads between convicting or freeing the accused killer. Juror #2 is your go-to film to watch on Max in December.
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (Coming soon)
Beetlejuice is back! After a family tragedy, the Deetz family returns to Winter River, where Lydia's life is disrupted when her daughter, Astrid, opens a portal to the Afterlife by discovering a mysterious model of the town. With trouble brewing in both realms, it's only a matter of time before Beetlejuice returns to stir up chaos.
