2. Titans (third season – 2021)

After two seasons on DC Universe, the third season of Titans will debut in 2021 as an HBO Max exclusive. The team of teenaged superheroes includes Batman’s former partner Robin, the shape-changing Beast Boy, the mystical Raven, and the energy powered Starfire. The team battled a number of enemies in its first season. They were joined by other supporting characters from the comics, including Hawk and Dove, Wonder Girl/Donna Troy, and even Bruce Wayne himself. Before the third season debuts, the first two Titans seasons should transfer to HBO Max in the near future.

3. Harley Quinn (third season 2021)

One of the best DC Comics shows on HBO Max is an animated series. Harley Quinn is a very R-rated show, featuring the Joker’s popular sidekick. However, in this series, Harley, voiced by Kaley Cuoco, decides to strike out on her own journey. As a result, she butts heads with a number of major and minor DC superheroes and villains. It’s truly funny stuff, but not suitable for the kids. After debuting on DC Universe,  you can now watch the first two seasons on HBO Max. The third season will make its way onto the service in 2021.

4. Young Justice (fourth season – 2021)

This is a more traditional animated series for a younger audience. While the first two seasons of this youth-based superteam were first shown on Cartoon Network, the third season debuted on DC Universe in 2019. Now, the fourth season has been greenlight and it will make its debut as an HBO Max exclusive in 2021.

5. Zack Snyder’s Justice League – 2021

This is one of the most anticipated HBO Max original series of all. Co-writer and director Zack Snyder had to leave the production of the live-action Justice League film before it was completed due to a family tragedy. Reshoots and rewrites of the movie were done without his supervision. As a result, the 2017 film released to theaters was not what Snyder had envisioned. After a huge amount of pressure from fans, Warner Bros decided to give Snyder another chance to create his version of the film.

The result will be called Zack Snyder’s Justice League (also known as The Snyder Cut). Lots of stuff that was filmed for the original movie, but was later cut, will be put back in for this version. New visual effects will be added, and even some new live-action scenes will be filmed. This won’t be just a re-edited movie. Zack Snyder’s Justice League will first be shown as four one-hour episodes on HBO Max, before being recut into a massive four-hour film.

6. Green Lantern

If you can forget that awful 2011 live-action Green Lantern movie, you might want to get excited for this upcoming DC Comics show on HBO Max. Green Lantern is the “space cop” of the DC Universe. He protects the Earth, and the universe, from cosmic threats. He does this with his green-charged Power Ring, which can create almost any shape or object he desires. Not much is known about this adaptation, but it is being executive produced by Greg Berlanti, who is in charge of the many successful DC Comics shows on the CW network.

7. Untitled The Batman prequel

Director Matt Reeves is in the middle of filming The Batman, the latest live-action feature film centering on the Caped Crusader. However, he’s also developing a prequel series for HBO Max. Set during the first year of The Batman’s appearances in Gotham City, it will focus
