HBO and Max are treating subscribers to a first look at some of its most highly-anticipated titles in 2024, with new footage from returning favorites like House of the Dragon and Curb Your Enthusiasm to sneak peeks at fresh franchise spinoffs like The Penguin and even 2025’s It prequel Welcome to Derry.
The two-minute teaser unveils the official 2024 slate for HBO and Max Originals fresh off the heels of the release of House of the Dragon‘s first Season 2 teaser. But the 2025 teases for The Last of Us, The White Lotus, and Welcome to Derry will keep viewers engaged well past the upcoming new year.
