HBO Max: Coming and Leaving in February 2023

HBO Max announced the list of films, series, and specials that are coming and leaving the streaming service during February 2023.

HBO Max announces programming coming to the platform this month including the Oscar-nominated film EMPIRE OF LIGHT (2/7). The film, directed by Sam Mendes, is about the power of human connection during turbulent times. Hilary (Olivia Colman), a cinema manager struggling with depression, and Stephen (Micheal Ward), a new employee longing to escape the provincial town where he faces daily adversity find a sense of belonging and experience the healing power of music, cinema, and community.

Oscar-nominated HBO documentary ALL THAT BREATHES (2/7), directed by Shaunak Sen, follows two brothers who devote their lives to the quixotic effort of protecting the black kite, a majestic bird of prey essential to the ecosystem of New Delhi that has been falling from the sky at alarming rates.

PUPPY BOWL XIX (2/12), the original and longest running call-to-adoption TV event returns for its 19th year on Animal Planet, TBS and streaming on HBO Max and discovery+. The three-hour television matchup will showcase more puppies, more animal shelters and rescues and more inspiring adoption stories than ever before as the puppy players from Team Ruff and Team Fluff take to the gridiron in the Puppy Bowl stadium to win the Wayfair “Lombarky” trophy.

LAST WEEK TONIGHT WITH JOHN OLIVER (2/19) returns for its tenth season for more satirical, insightful, and meticulously researched looks at current events in the U.S. and around the globe. The weekly series features Oliver’s hilarious, expertly honed perspective on today’s pressing political, social, and cultural issues, as well as lesser-reported topics that both inform and entertain. Shot in New York, season ten features the show’s weekly topical insights, signature deep dives, and distinctive comedy pieces.

Legendary comedian and podcaster Marc Maron stars in his first-ever HBO comedy special filmed in front of a live audience at New York City’s Town Hall. Over the course of a hilarious and deeply personal hour, Maron explores such universal topics as getting older, antisemitism and faith, and the superiority of having cats over children – especially during the pandemic. The comedian also opens up about the loss of his partner in 2020 and reestablishing his complicated relationship with his father. Funny and fearless, MARC MARON: FROM BLEAK TO DARK (2/11) showcases the comedian’s expertly layered cynicism as he deftly weaves humor and pathos into his signature style of storytelling.

HARLEY QUINN: A VERY PROBLEMATIC VALENTINE’S DAY SPECIAL (2/9) follows Harley as she goes to obsessive lengths to ensure that her first Valentine’s Day with Ivy is the best ever and Bane’s efforts to impress an unexpected date go horribly awry. Meanwhile, after an unfortunate online dating encounter, Clayface engages in some self-love.

This month also brings The American Black Film Festival (ABFF) shorts to the platform on February 1, which includes HBO Short Film Award winner ANOTHER COUNTRY along with finalists TALK BLACKTHE FAMILY MEETING and PENS & PENCILS.  

In addition, HBO Max has several more Oscar-nominated films available to stream including BANSHEES of INISHERINTHE BATMAN, ELVIS and NAVALNY, from CNN Films, HBO Max and Warner Bros. Pictures, which follows Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny through his political rise, attempted assassination and search to uncover the truth.

Another batch of discovery+ titles will be coming to HBO Max on February 1 including season one of LOVE OFF THE GRID, HUNGRY FOR ANSWERS, THE GREAT SOUL FOOD COOK OFF, and THE CULPO SISTERS.
