It’s no coincidence that, in the month that HBO Max launches in the UK, Sky is taking its biggest swing yet with a British original: the long-attempted UK version of Saturday Night Live. It’s joined by a host of HBO originals that were once exclusives on this side of the pond – including Rooster, Ted, DTF St Louis and The Comeback. When HBO Max does launch, though, Sky will include HBO Max titles in its Sky Ultimate TV subscription – and, for NOW’s streaming customers, HBO Max Basic with Ads will also be included in NOW Entertainment memberships at no extra cost.

Sky Cinema’s line-up, meanwhile, features Materialists, Nobody 2, Superman and Oscar contender One Battle After Another. Plus, for Sky Cinema subscribers on Sky platforms, there’s the added bonus of Paramount+ titles being included for free. For more information on getting Sky Cinema, click here. Again, if you don’t have Sky, you can also stream Sky Cinema’s movie catalogue live and on-demand through NOW, for £11.99 a month.

Here’s what’s currently confirmed as coming soon to Sky and NOW in March 2026:
