What’s Coming to HBO Max in October 2022, Including ‘The White Lotus,’ ‘Pennyworth,’ ‘Tree of Life’ Documentary

This year’s most Emmy-winning show, “The White Lotus,” is set to return to HBO Max for a second season on Oct. 30. Now set at a Sicilian resort, it follows the machinations and desires of guests and staffers. The new murder mystery follows Aubrey Plaza (“Parks and Recreation”) and Michel Imperioli (“The Sopranos”) checking into the resort. Jennifer Coolidge reprises her role, the only remaining cast member from the first season.

Long before Batman, there was Alfred Pennyworth, a former British SAS soldier and trusted confidant of the Wayne family, long before the birth of young Bruce. Pennyworth has an exciting back story all his own, which began in two seasons on Epix before moving to HBO Max for Season 3 on Oct. 6.

Watch the “Pennyworth: The Origin of Batman’s Butler” Season 3 trailer:

Sticking with the expanded Cape Crusader universe, the animated series “Batwheels” arrives on the streamer on Oct. 18. The preschool series features super vehicles joining forces with Batman, Robin, and Batgirl as they defend Gotham City.

On Oct. 26, the documentary “A Tree of Life: The Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooting,” details the brutal murder of 11 Jews by a neo-Nazi armed with an assault rifle and handguns who opened fire during Saturday morning services in October 2018. It was the worst anti-Semitic attack in U.S. history.
