Max Announces Two More From A24

A24’s Civil War arrived on the Max streaming service last weekend, and I Saw The TV Glow will appear in just a few days. But it actually looks like A24’s entire 2024 slate will be streaming on Max before long — two more of the studio’s recent pictures, Tuesday and MAXXXINE, were just announced for October streaming debuts.

Tuesday is one of A24’s more out-there ventures. It stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus as the mother of a teenage daughter (played by Lola Petticrew) whom she is trying to keep out of the hands of Death. Death, in this movie, is personified by a talking parrot, and the bird was just about to claim Tuesday (yep, the daughter’s named Tuesday) until he had a panic attack right before he had to do the job. Tuesday felt sorry for Death and lent the bird her vape pen, and that’s how she got away. You can be assured the picture gets weirder from there.

Though you might not have heard of Tuesday before, you probably caught the promotional campaign for MAXXXINE at some point, as it was promoted a lot more than A24’s other ventures. It is 1985 and adult film stae Maxine Minx (Mia Goth) may have landed the role that will take her out of slumming it and into true stardom — unless her past catches up with her. Said past is implied to have something to do with the Night Stalker, an actual murderer who stalked Hollywood in the 1980s. MAXXXINE is the sequel to a trilogy of films by director Ti West, but neither I not most people have heard of the previous two before.

Tuesday will be available to stream on Max Friday, October 11, and will appear on the linear HBO channel the following day. MAXXXINE will appear one week from then on October 18, HBO on October 19.

I'm a huge fan of A24, so I'm definitely going to check out both of these films. Tuesday sounds like a quirky little indie film, and MAXXXINE seems like a stylish horror thriller. I'm excited to see what they have in store.

I'm not a huge horror fan, but I do enjoy a good thriller. "MaXXXine" sounds interesting, especially with the whole Night Stalker angle. I might check that out. I'm not sure about "Tuesday" though. A talking parrot? That sounds a bit too out there for me. But who knows, maybe it'll be a fun surprise.

As a huge fan of X and Pearl, I'm beyond excited for MaXXXine! Mia Goth's performance was absolutely incredible in those movies, and I can't wait to see her reprise the role. The idea of her character getting caught up in the Night Stalker mystery is both terrifying and intriguing. I'm also curious to see how the film connects to the previous two movies in the trilogy. I'm definitely adding MaXXXine to my must-watch list!

I'm a huge fan of Halsey's music, and I'm so excited to see her branching out into acting. First Smile 2, and now MaXXXine - she's really making a name for herself in the horror genre. I'm definitely going to check out MaXXXine. I love a good scare, and Halsey's talent is undeniable. Can't wait to see what she does next!
