The streaming service Max offers a vast content library of TV shows and movies, as well as original programming, and in November, like every month, the service is losing some of its offerings. Max includes content from several brands, such as HBO, Warner Bros., Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, DC, and Max Originals. After the April 2022 merger between WarnerMedia and Discovery, Inc., the streaming service was relaunched as Max on May 23, 2023.
Every month, Max brings on new movies and TV shows to add to its content library, and every month, some are taken away. In November 2023, movies and TV shows are disappearing from Max in a slow trickle before the last day of the month when over 100 titles will be removed. Often, Max removes movies in a franchise or series at the same time, but there are also plenty of standalone movies that will disappear soon as well. The clock is ticking on certain TV and movie titles and those interested should sign on in order not to miss anything.
November 1
- Dark Winds (AMC+)
- Discovery of Witches, Season 1-3 (AMC+)
- Fear the Walking Dead, Seasons 1-7 (AMC+)
- Gangs of London, Seasons 1-2 (AMC+)
- Interview with the Vampire (AMC+)
- Killing Eve, Seasons 1-4 (AMC+)
- Ride With Norman Reedus, Seasons 1-5 (AMC+)
The first of November will see a number of high-profile AMC shows being removed from Max. Among them is Fear the Walking Dead, the first-ever spinoff of The Walking Dead. With so many upcoming Walking Dead spinoffs as well as the ones that have already aired, such as The Walking Dead: Dead City and The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, fans of the franchise may have wanted to revisit Fear the Walking Dead, but unfortunately, Max will no longer be the place to do that.
Among the other notable shows leaving Max include the Emmy-winning dark comedy Killing Eve with Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer, the British crime saga Gangs of London, the crime mystery Dark Winds, and the period horror series Interview with the Vampire. Certainly, there will be many Max users sad to see these shows go, but they will likely pop up elsewhere soon.
November 2
- 300: Rise of an Empire (2014)
November 2 will see the departure of the adventure sequel 300: Rise of an Empire. The follow-up to Zack Snyder’s 300 sees the general of Athens leading his navy against Xerxes and his invading Persian army. 300 plays around with historical accuracy and its sequel is likewise willing to bend the laws of reality to bring Frank Miller’s story to life. While Gerard Butler’s iconic Leonidas is absent from the sequel, Eva Green steals the show as a vengeful Persian warrior. Though it is not on par with the original, fans of 300 may want to check out the sequel while they can.
November 5
- Hard Knocks: In Season: The Arizona Cardinals (HBO Original)
Sports fans will have to say goodbye to one of the best seasons of Hard Knocks as it leaves Max on November 5. The series gives fans an in-depth look at the NFL with each season exploring a different team in the league during their training camp as they prepare for a new season. The spinoff series Hard Knocks: In Season: The Arizona Cardinals follows the team as they prepare for the postseason challenges. It is a fascinating look at the high-intensity world.
November 6
- The Host (2013)
Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan leads a title that will be leaving Max on November 6. The Host is a sci-fi movie based on the novel by Twilight author Stephenie Meyer which stars Ronan as a young girl who fights to protect her loved ones when Earth is invaded by an unseen enemy that has the ability to take over a person’s body and erase their memories. The movie came and went in 2013 without making much of an impact, but Ronan is always an intriguing actor to follow and fans of the young adult genre may be interested in seeking out this overlooked title while it is still on Max.
November 7
- Noblesse (2020)
- We Are Not Done Yet (2018) (HBO Original)
Two smaller titles are being removed from Max on November 7. First is the anime project Noblesse which is an action-adventure that follows an ancient warrior who awakens from a centuries-long slumber and enrolls in high school to learn about the human world while defending it from invaders. Also leaving on November 7 is We Are Not Done Yet, a powerful documentary short that follows a group of veterans who come together to deal with their trauma through art.
November 12
- Banksy Does New York (HBO Original)
A documentary about one of the most intriguing figures of the modern art world leaves Max on November 12. Banksy Does New York is a documentary about the renowned yet hidden Banksy as he conducts a month-long art show, revealing a new public creation he has made in New York City. Banksy’s work is iconic and the documentary is a must-see for fans of the artist, but even those who are not familiar with his work can be thrilled by the unique approach.

November 15
- 2022 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony (HBO Original)
Music fans will be missing a thrilling event that will be pulled from Max on November 15. Each year, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inducts new rockers who have helped influence the genre and put their own stamp on music history. The event is an exciting display of music honoring these musicians with music and appearances from other artists. The 2022 show featured inductees like Dolly Parton, Beck, and A Tribe Called Quest, but fans will only have a short time left to see these amazing artists honored.
November 25
- The Howard Stern Interview: Bruce Springsteen (HBO Original)
Another great bit of content for music lovers will be gone from Max on November 25. Bruce Springsteen’s interview with Howard Stern is an insightful and fascinating look at the life, career, and legacy of one of the most popular American rock stars of all time. Stern is an expert interviewer and delves into Springsteen’s stories through this fascinating conversation which also includes beautiful stripped-down performances of some of Springsteen’s songs.

As is always the case, the last of the month sees the largest number of titles being removed from Max. November 30 shows a strong indication of Max looking to shift from the Halloween season once October has concluded as there will be a large number of horror titles being removed. This includes the removal of one of the most popular and long-lasting horror franchises with a number of A Nightmare on Elm Street movies being removed. Wes Craven’s original horror hit introduced the world to Freddy Krueger who became one of the most iconic horror movie icons of all time. While the sequels never lived up to the original, there are some fun entries that will be missing from Max, all of them featuring a memorable performance from Robert Englund as Freddy.
The other notable horror titles that will be taken off Max at the end of the month range from some older classics like The Mummy, The Haunting, and The Curse of Frankenstein to some more modern hits like Doctor Sleep, Insidious, and Green Room. Other great movies Max users will no longer have access to include the Best Picture winner The Hurt Locker, the comic book adaptation V for Vendetta, the 80s teen classic Pretty in Pink, the Jim Carrey comedy The Mask, and David Fincher’s hit thriller Gone Girl.
