HACKS
Season 5 premieres 10 April

EUPHORIA
Season 3 premieres 13 April
Created by DGA Award winner Sam Levinson and starring Emmy-awarded Zendaya, the anticipated third season of the HBO Original drama series Euphoria debuts on Monday, 13 April on HBO Max. In season three, a group of childhood friends wrestle with the virtue of faith, the possibility of redemption, and the problem of evil. Euphoria is one of the most watched series in all of HBO’s history and its first two seasons earned 25 Emmy® nominations, including nine wins.
(8 x 60 min, new episodes weekly)
HALF MAN
Premieres 24 April
Niall (Jamie Bell) and Ruben (Richard Gadd) are brothers. Not related in blood but the closest you can get. One, fierce and loyal. The other, meek and mild-mannered. Inseparable youth. Brought into each other’s lives through death and circumstance, all they have is each other… But when Ruben turns up at Niall’s wedding three decades later, everything seems different. He is on edge. Shifty. Not acting like himself. And soon, an explosion of violence takes place which catapults us back through their lives, from the eighties to the present day. Capturing 30 years in the lives of these broken men, Half Man is a six-part limited series exploring brotherhood, violence, and the intense fragility of male relationships. After all, when things fall apart… it is sometimes the closest relationships which break the hardest. An HBO and BBC co-production, the six episodes of this limited series from Emmy®-winning creator and executive producer Richard Gadd will be released weekly.
(6 x 50 min, new episodes weekly)
