August tends to be a quieter time in the world of film and television. Most of the best summer movies have already hit multiplexes, and many networks air reruns or replacement programming while waiting until fall to debut new seasons of their marquee programs. It’s a little quieter than normal in the world of streaming as well, but there are still a number of new movies and TV shows coming to Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, and Amazon Prime Video in August.
Two of the biggest streaming titles debuting this month are hit shows returning for a fourth season. First up is the long-awaited return of “Ted Lasso” (Aug. 5, Apple TV), which finds the affable coach (Jason Sudeikis) now in charge of the women’s team at the fictional AFC Richmond. Then there’s the fourth season of “Reacher” (Aug. 14, Prime Video), which brings the hulking Alan Ritchson back for another round of vigilante justice.
Other streaming highlights for the month of August include “The Whisper Man” (Aug. 29, Netflix), a new movie starring Robert De Niro, Michelle Monaghan, and Adam Scott; “Lanterns” (Aug. 16, HBO Max) a new Green Lantern series from DC Comics starring Aaron Pierre and Kyle Chandler; and the streaming debut of the 2026 romcom “You, Me & Tuscany” (Aug. 7, Peacock).
Below you’ll find a full list of what’s new in August 2026 on eight of the most popular streaming services in America: Netflix, HBO Max, Hulu, Disney+, Prime Video, Apple TV, Peacock, and Paramount+.
