A new month brings with it another bumper crop of new movies and TV shows on HBO Max, and we’ve put them all in a handy list for you. There are movie premiers of brand new titles like live-action/animation hybrid Tom and Jerry and Daniel Kaluuya-led biopic Judas and the Black Messiah, as well as the addition of old favorites like Blade Runner, The Matrix, and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Family-friendly movie nights are sorted, too, with new Studio Ghibli flick Earwig and the Witch or '70s classic Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.
Plus, there are plenty of TV shows to get stuck into, such as It's A Sin, the HBO Max Original drama about the AIDs crisis, as well as new seasons of documentary United Shades of America and comedy Tacoma FD. Here's everything new on HBO Max in February 2021, with three of the biggest highlights at the top.
Earwig and the Witch – February 5
Out in select US theaters on February 3, you can catch Earwig and the Witch on HBO Max two days later. Studio Ghibli’s first 3D CGI animated movie follows Earwig, a 10-year-old girl who’s adopted by a selfish witch. With the help of a talking cat, Earwig uses her wit to show the witch who‘s boss. The English-language voice cast includes Richard E. Grant, Kacey Musgraves, and Dan Stevens. It’s based on the children’s novel of the same by Diana Wynne Jones – she also wrote Howl’s Moving Castle, which was adapted into a Ghibli movie in 2004.
Judas and the Black Messiah – February 12
Like the rest of Warner Bros.' 2021 slate, Judas and the Black Messiah premieres simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max, so you can see the newest releases from the comfort of your own home. The movie follows the life of Fred Hampton (Daniel Kaluuya), chairman of the Black Panther Party in the late '60s, and his betrayal at the hands of FBI informant William O'Neal (Lakeith Stanfield). Directed by Shaka King and produced by Black Panther director Ryan Coogler, the all-star supporting cast includes I'm Thinking of Ending Things' Jesse Plemons, Moonlight's Ashton Sanders, and Martin Sheen.
It's a Sin – February 18
HBO Max Original miniseries It's A Sin follows three 18-year-olds who move to London in 1981 and have their lives turned upside down by the AIDs crisis. It stars Years & Years frontman Olly Alexander, with a supporting cast including Neil Patrick Harris, Stephen Fry, and Keeley Hawes. The series was written and created by Russell T. Davies, who's known for overseeing the BBC's revival of Doctor Who in 2005 and penning British LGBTQ TV dramas like Queer As Folk and Cucumber.
Davies recently chatted to GamesRadar+'s sister publication SFX Magazine – you can read more here.
