What’s New on Max in May 2025

Max’s May lineup brings the return of two of the streamer’s original comedy series. First up is the second installment of Conan O’Brien Must Go (May 8), an unscripted travel series in which Conan reconnects with fans he previously met on his podcast, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend. This season’s three episodes will debut weekly.

At the end of the month, Sex and the City spinoff And Just Like That… (May 29) returns for its third season, following original SATC characters—plus a few additions—navigating life in New York City in their 50s.

On the film side, Max will debut HBO original Mountainhead (May 31), starring Steve Carrell, Jason Schwartzman, Cory Michael Smith, and Ramy Youssef as billionaire friends navigating a financial crisis. Mountainhead was written and directed by Succession creator Jesse Armstrong. Also landing on Max in May is A24’s Oscar-winning drama The 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 docu-series 100 Foot Wave (May 1) also returns for a third season, with five episodes debuting weekly.

Max subscribers will also get a variety of live sports, including NHL and NBA playoff games as well as a handful of MLB matchups.

Here’s everything else coming to Max in May.
