New HBO and Max Shows and Movies in November 2023

Are you feeling thankful yet? You might, once you hear what's coming to HBO and Max in November. It's an admittedly light month for new releases, but the Season 2 premieres of the great Max originals Rap Sh!t and Julia are easily the biggest highlights. A few documentaries, like the HBO-produced Albert Brooks: Defending My Life and the CNN-produced Little Richard: I Am Everything, will also debut in November. And if you're looking for something to watch with your dad over the holidays, Bookie, the new Chuck Lorre-created, Sebastian Maniscalco-starring dark comedy series, will premiere at the end of the month.

Below, we pulled together our picks for the month, plus a list of what's coming to HBO and Max in November.

The best new HBO and Max movies and shows in November

Max streams all HBO shows and movies when they debut on HBO. But not all shows and movies on Max make it to HBO. We'll designate Max exclusives where appropriate.

Rap Sh!t Season 2 (Nov. 9, Max)

Rap Sh!t, the Issa Rae-created series about two estranged friends trying to make it in the music industry, was supposed to premiere its second season back in August but got delayed due to the actors strike. The strike remains ongoing, but the good news is that Rap Sh!t is nevertheless returning, and the new season finds Shawna (Aida Osman) and Mia (KaMillion) at a pivotal point in their rap career as their growing fame forces them question how to stay true to themselves.

Julia Season 2 (Nov. 16, Max)

Season 1 of Julia, Max's biopic series about the legendary chef Julia Child (played here by a luminous Sarah Lancashire), tracked Child's ascent to TV stardom in the 1960s as she brought the art of French cooking to American audiences. The beginning of Season 2 will be set in Paris and follow Child's continued struggle with her newfound fame.
