The story is set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War and revolves around his new life as a refugee in Los Angeles. The miniseries stars Hoa Xuande, Sandra Oh, and Robert Downey Jr. Releasing on April 14th.
Another top pick is Michael Cera’s Scott Pilgrim vs The World, which follows a young man (Cera) in his early 20s as he struggles to make ends meet in a failed indie garage band while still longing for his ex (Brie Larson). The series debuts on April 1st on Max.
Winning three consecutive Academy Awards this year, The Zone Of Interest by Jonathan Glazer is set to be released on Max on 5 April 2024.
