It’s ironic that The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie is coming to HBO and Max in June after Warner Bros. sold it off to another studio for its theatrical release. But on June 27, the latest adventure of Daffy Duck and Porky Pig will be back on Max where it belongs.
In the meantime, Brad Pitt’s excellent action comedy Bullet Train is arriving on June 3. Max is also adding the first four Hunger Games flicks, Casino, Fight Club, and 2019’s Best Picture winner at the Oscars, Parasite. That’s a great lineup of films, and HBO and Max are also bringing back The Gilded Age for season 3 later this month.
The complete list of what’s coming to HBO and Max in June 2025 is below. Our film and TV show recommendations are in bold.

Some of the best shots in Grok Imagine’s AI-made Odyssey don’t contain actors. Ancient landscapes stretch into the distance. Close-ups of grimy hands suggest people who have touched something rougher than a keyboard. For a few seconds, the illusion holds.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.
What is AV2, and why should viewers care?
YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.
YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
