Moving onto TV content, many exciting new shows will drop on HBO Max throughout December. The 1st sees Stargirl season 1 hop over from DC Universe, while a new episode of Euphoria debuts on the 6th. Christmas Day then brings all seven runs of The West Wing, while the season 2 finale of His Dark Materials lands on the 28th.

The biggest highlight of December’s haul, though, has to be the new blockbuster that’s exclusively arriving on the platform this Christmas. After much shifting around the schedule, Wonder Woman 1984 is being released via streaming in the states. Other territories will have to see it on the big screen, but those in the US get to view the much-anticipated sequel from the comfort of their own homes.

Let us know what you’re looking forward to catching on HBO Max next month, though – apart from Wonder Woman 1984, that is – by dropping a comment below.
