What’s Coming to HBO Max in August 2022, Including ‘House of the Dragon’ Premiere; ‘Industry,’ ‘Hard Knocks’ Returns

“Game of Thrones” fans are eagerly anticipating the prequel series “House of the Dragon,” which arrives on HBO and HBO Max on Aug. 21. “Dragon,” set nearly 200 years before “GoT,” follows the saga of the Targaryen civil war and is based on George R.R. Martin’s 2018 fantasy novel “Fire & Blood.” New episodes will stream in 4K Ultra HD, HDR 10, Dolby Vision, and Dolby Atmos, as will all eight seasons of “Game of Thrones,” currently on the streamer. “House of Dragon” stars Matt Smith, Paddy Considine, Emma D’Arcy, and Olivia Cooke.

Check out the trailer for “House of the Dragon”:

In addition, Season 2 of the series “Industry” drops on Aug. 1. “Industry” follows a group of young business grads in London fighting for a permanent job at Pierpoint & Co. And they stop at nothing to get what they want. Football documentary series “Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Detroit Lions” will also begin streaming in August, as the inside look to preseason practice kicks off on Aug. 9.

Film buffs will welcome the snappy 1947 film-noir classic “Out of the Past,” starring Robert Mitchum and Kirk Douglas, which streams on the service on Aug. 1. Mitchum is a former PI trying to escape his past when the gangster (Douglas) who hired him to find his girlfriend years ago catches up with him. A femme fatale, urban cynicism, mean streets, and moral malaise — it’s got it all.
