As February fast approaches, we hurtle toward having to say goodbye to a whole lot of streaming titles leaving HBO Now next month. Wish Seventh Son a fond farewell, you die-hard Jeff Bridges-heads. Meanwhile, the rest of us will mourn the loss of modern classics like Children of Men, Michael Clayton and I Love You, Man.
But fret not, HBO fans, as the network’s streaming service will debut a host of fresh content with the coming month. First up, we’ve got a promising lineup of new and returning comedy shows, including the premiere of the final season of Girls, the season four premiere of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, and the new semi-autobiographical comedy series, Crashing, starring jolly giant stand-up Pete Holmes. We’ll also see the premiere of Big Little Lies, the limited drama series starring Shailene Woodley, Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman. The Young Pope will also be wrapping up next month, so be sure to catch the remaining episodes when they air.
On the documentary front, you’ll be able to check out Eagles of Death Metal: Nos Amis (Our Friends), which details events before and after the terrorist attack that was carried out at their Paris concert in 2015, which claimed 89 lives. You’ll also be able to check out Tickled, the surreal and surprisingly intense documentary that follows journalist David Farrier as he digs into the bizarre “competitive endurance tickling” scene.
New to HBO’s theatrical slate comes The Legend of Tarzan, starring HBO mainstay and yet another star of Big Little Lies, Alexander Skarsgård. Accompanying the jungle flick is a quartet of Spike Lee joints, Clockers, Crooklyn, Do the Right Thing and Mo’ Better Blues, along with two John Hughes-directed ’80s classics, Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club.
