Summer is just around the corner, and HBO Max is heating up with a wave of new movies and shows. With an impressive lineup from HBO, Warner Bros. Discovery, and acclaimed studios like A24, the soon-to-be renamed HBO Max solidifies its position as one of the best streaming platforms yet again.
This month marks the return of the hit period drama "The Gilded Age" for its third season, so get ready for more high-society scandals and relationship drama. You'll also find "Cleaner," a new action thriller starring Daisy Ridley from "Casino Royale" director Martin Campbell, on the streamer as well as A24's fantasy romance "Parthenope."
The blockbuster "A Minecraft Movie" is making its way to HBO Max too, so you can experience its chaotic charm without leaving your couch (or braving the popcorn-strewn theaters).
Without further ado, let's dive into everything new on HBO Max in June 2025. For even more streaming recommendations, be sure to check out our guide to the best movies on Max.
Legendary 007 director Martin Campbell is back with another British action thriller that, while an obvious "Die Hard" clone, is still a fun, breezy watch if you're in the mood for some pulse-pounding action. And aren't too afraid of heights.
Star Wars alum Daisy Ridley takes center stage as Joey, an ex-soldier turned window cleaner who spends her days at dizzying heights along London's high-rises. When her neurodivergent brother Michael (Matthew Tuck) gets kicked out of his umpteenth care home after hacking their system, she reluctantly brings him to work with her as she tries to straighten things out.
But her day goes from bad to worse when an eco-terrorist organization led by Marcus Blake (Clive Owen) strikes the building she's cleaning, taking hostages at an energy company's annual gala in an attempt to expose corruption. It's up to her to save the day by taking justice into her own hands, Bruce Willis style, with plenty of vertigo-inducing shots to keep you on the edge of your seat.

The Russells continue their upward climb in New York City society this month when season 3 of Max's Emmy-winning series "The Gilded Age" premieres. Julian Fellowes' period drama has slowly grown into one of the streamer's biggest shows, and its next outing promises more high-society shenanigans, messy romance arcs and fashionably gorgeous headwear.
Season 3 promises to get back to Fellowes' "Downton Abbey" roots with a healthy helping of relationship drama. After Bertha (Carrie Coon) managed to win the opera war in season 2 by offering Gladys (Taissa Farmiga) as part of a marriage proposal, the mother and daughter's relationship has hit rock bottom. Love is in the air as Russell family heir Larry (Harry Richardson) embarks on a new romance with Marian Brook (Louisa Jacobson) from the rival Van Rhijn family.
Meanwhile, the Russells' social life couldn't be better now that they've safely positioned themselves at the top of society. But whether they can keep their spot on the throne is the real challenge.
Stream on HBO Max starting June 22
If you've been holding out to watch "A Minecraft Movie" from the comfort of your couch instead of braving the "Chicken jockey" chaos in theaters, it lands on HBO Max this month. The June Max calendar only lists it as "coming soon" with no exact premiere date, but streaming tracker When to Stream predicts it should be around June 20.
The story follows a ragtag crew of misfits (Jason Momoa, Danielle Brooks, Emma Myers, and Sebastian Hansen), who stumble through a portal into the Minecraft Overworld. Their imaginations are put to the test as they team up with Steve (Jack Black), a seasoned crafter who's been stuck there for decades, to get back home.
Even if you've never touched the game, there's plenty to enjoy in this sugar rush of pixelated fun. It's packed with plenty of quirky charm thanks to "Napoleon Dynamite" director Jared Hess, and Jack Black delivers a standout performance that's sure to win over a new generation of fans.

The Gilded Age season 3 premiere recap: Everything we know so far

HBO's The Gilded Age is back, and Season 3 is already stirring up drama in 1880s New York. Julian Fellowes's show about wealth, power, and scandal has fans buzzing with its mix of fancy costumes and messy family fights. The new season started airing on June 22, 2025, and here's everything you need to know about what's going down with the Russells, van Rhijns, and more. When and Where to Watch The Gilded Age Season 3 The third season hit HBO and Max on June 22, 2025, at 9 p.m. ET/PT. You'll get eight episodes total, dropping every Sunday, with the big finale set for August 10, 2025. If you're itching to see it early, the first episode screened at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 12, 2025, with the cast and Fellowes spilling some tea afterward. Want to catch up? Seasons 1 and 2 are streaming on Max, and Season 3 episodes are there too, ready for your weekend binge. What's the Story This Time? Season 3 picks up right after Bertha Russell (Carrie Coon) won the Opera War in Season 2, snagging the Duke of Buckingham for her Metropolitan Opera opening. The show's all about the 1880s, a time when money and status ruled New York, but nobody got to the top without some serious sacrifices. Bertha's chasing an even bigger win to cement her family's spot in high society, while her husband, George (Morgan Spector), is betting it all on a wild plan to build a railroad from Chicago to Los Angeles. He's out in Arizona trying to buy mines in Morenci, but the local miners aren't making it easy, and it could cost him big. Over at the van Rhijn house, things are tense. Agnes van Rhijn (Christine Baranski) is not thrilled that her sister Ada Forte (Cynthia Nixon) is calling the shots now, thanks to a surprise inheritance. Marian Brook (Louisa Jacobson) and Larry Russell (Harry Richardson) are sneaking around, falling for each other behind everyone's backs. Meanwhile, Peggy Scott (Denée Benton) is catching feelings for Dr. William Kirkland (Jordan Donica), but his snooty family isn't exactly rolling out the welcome mat for a Black journalist. The season's got some heavy stuff too, like divorce—super scandalous back then. Aurora Fane's husband, Charles, wants out of their marriage, and there's talk it might be because he's hiding who he really is. Plus, expect some dark twists, like a freak accident and a violent moment that shakes things up. Who's in the Cast? The main crew is back: Carrie Coon as the fierce Bertha, Morgan Spector as George, Christine Baranski as the sharp-tongued Agnes, and Cynthia Nixon as the newly empowered Ada. Louisa Jacobson keeps Marian's story moving, and Denée Benton's Peggy is getting more to do this season. You'll also see Taissa Farmiga as Gladys Russell, Harry Richardson as Larry, Blake Ritson as Oscar van Rhijn, and Donna Murphy as the queen of society, Mrs. Astor. New faces are shaking things up. Phylicia Rashad plays Elizabeth Kirkland, a tough Newport socialite, with Brian Stokes Mitchell as her preacher husband, Frederick. Their son, Dr. William Kirkland (Jordan Donica), is Peggy's new love interest. Victoria Clark joins as Joan Carlton, an old-money type, and you've got Merritt Wever as Bertha's sister Monica O'Brien, plus Bill Camp as J.P. Morgan himself. Other newcomers like Leslie Uggams, Lisagay Hamilton, and Andrea Martin add more spice to the mix. Episode 1 Recap The season kicks off far from New York's fancy ballrooms, in dusty Morenci, Arizona. George is trying to lock down those mines for his railroad dream, but the miners want a union, and he's not having it. Back home, the van Rhijn house is a mess. Ada's leaning into the temperance movement after losing her husband, Luke, and Agnes is grumpy about playing second fiddle. Peggy gets sick with pneumonia, and a racist doctor refuses to help her, which hits hard and forces her family to step in. At the Russells', Bertha's pushing Gladys to marry the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb), but Gladys is sneaking off with Billy Carlton (Matt Walker) instead. When Bertha finds out, it's fireworks. Marian and Larry are keeping their romance quiet, but it's getting serious. Larry also ditches his business partner Jack on a clock project, which stirs up trouble. The episode sets up a season that's not afraid to get gritty while still delivering the glitz. Ahmedabad Plane Crash

Rey's Return to STAR WARS Reportedly Paused as Lucasfilm Prioritizes Other Projects — GeekTyrant

The Rey-centric Star Wars movie may be hitting pause… again. According to industry insider Daniel Richtman, the long-gestating New Jedi Order film, which would see Daisy Ridley reprise her role as Rey under the direction of Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, is reportedly back on hold. Richtman says, 'The Rey movie is on hold once again, as both the Shawn Levy and James Mangold Star Wars films are moving forward first. The project is not canceled — just temporarily on hold.' This shift isn't entirely unexpected. After Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight exited the project, a new writer was never publicly confirmed. Despite that uncertainty, Lucasfilm still appeared to view the film as a priority… until now. The status of Rey's next chapter has been murky for a while. One moment it's full speed ahead, the next it's reworking behind the scenes. But don't count Rey out just yet. In fact, a previously report suggests she still plays a major role in Lucasfilm's long-term plans. 'Rey, the scavenger-turned-Jedi played by Daisy Ridley in the last three episode movies, is key to the franchise's next turn. That potentially puts Kinberg's trilogy story development, as early in its conceptual stages as it may be, on a collision course with the Rey standalone movie that is actively in the works with director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy.' The report went even further, noting that Ridley's Rey is more than just another character. According to one unnamed source: 'She is the most valuable cinematic asset, in some ways maybe the only one, Star Wars has right now.' That might explain why writer-producer Simon Kinberg ( X-Men: Dark Phoenix ) is reportedly developing a new trilogy that could feature Rey in some capacity, though how it connects to New Jedi Order is still unclear. As for Ridley herself, she spoke about her return last year in an interview with Premiere magazine: "They simply asked if I wanted to do it, based on an idea, without the script being written yet. But if I hadn't been convinced by the concept, the movie wouldn't have been made. I took a day to think about it and I told myself that I had had great times making those films. 'This new adventure seemed fun to me, so why say no? My thoughts on the subject are quite simple: if I didn't think the story was worth telling, I wouldn't have come back." The project was said to be set 15 years after The Rise of Skywalker , with Rey building a new Jedi Order from scratch. Whether that vision still stands or gets absorbed into another project remains to be seen. For now, the wait for Rey's return continues… again.
