What’s coming to HBO Max in May 2026: movies, series, documentaries, and specials

April is finally coming to an end, and with that, we’re getting ready to see what’s coming to streaming services in May 2026. Now it’s HBO MAX’s turn. After a strong start to the year, we’re now facing an extremely quiet month. Highlights include productions like ‘Song of the Samurai,’ the arrival of “Wuthering Heights” on streaming, and a documentary about the Men’s National Soccer Team to kick off the road to the 2026 World Cup.
