Fresh rom-coms have been a little sparse on HBO Max, but this month, the streamer has one of the most successful romantic comedies of 2025.
A24’s Materialists struck a chord with audiences and earned $108 million worldwide. Having a cast that includes Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans probably helped.
The British rom-com Starter for 10 has an even more impressive cast, but the two-decade-old film is due for a resurgence.
Both of these films have been added to the Watch With Us team’s picks for the must-watch rom-coms on HBO Max right now.
