Dune, Succession season 3 and more on HBO Max in October
By Lacy Baugher
A new month means an exciting batch of new content is arriving on HBO Max! As has been the case for much of 2021, the big news for the streamer is the simultaneous release of a big theatrical property on the same day that it arrives in theaters. And this October, one of the biggest titles of the year will hit our screens: Denis Villeneuve’s new adaptation of Dune.
The film, based on the famous 1965 novel of the same name by Frank Herbert, was adapted into a feature film back in the 1980s, but this 2021 version has already been racking up fairly rapturous reviews. See and decide for yourself on October 22.
The Sopranos prequel film The Many Saints of Newark also arrives on HBO Max this month (Oct. 1) alongside its theatrical release.
Over on the television side of things, the highly anticipated third season of Succession will finally begin this month, nearly two years after its second originally aired. The trailer promises a Roy family battle royal, as Kendall and Logan face off. The fun begins on October 17.
Other notable HBO Max television releases include the final season of Insecure (October 24) and the second season of Love Life (October 28).
