Then, on April 12, "Euphoria" season 3 finally arrives, picking up after a major time jump and pushing Rue into a darker, more dangerous phase of her life, far beyond the confines of high school.

Later in the month, "Half Man" premieres April 23. exploring the lives of two men bound like brothers whose reunion at a wedding changes everything about their relationship.

Those three titles alone make April worth paying attention to, but they're only the beginning. Keep scrolling for the full list of everything coming to HBO Max this month.
