Women of Troy -- Available on Digital October 5th

HBO Sports and Bill Simmons’ Ringer Films have partnered with Triple Threat TV to debut an illuminating tale of the historic and transcendent USC women’s basketball team of the 1980s. Directed by acclaimed feature-film director Alison Ellwood and produced by Gary Cohen of Triple Threat TV, the film explores how the Cheryl Miller-led Trojans changed women’s basketball forever with their up-tempo style and superior athleticism en route to winning consecutive national championships, and ultimately influencing the establishment of the WNBA.

Room 104: Season 4 -- Available on Digital October 10th

Set in a single room of a typical American chain motel, this anthology series tells different stories of the assorted characters who pass through it. From creators and executive producers Mark and Jay Duplass, episodes range from comedy to drama to horror.

Coastal Elites -- Available on Digital October 12th

Produced entirely under quarantine, this brand-new special presentation from Paul Rudnick and Jay Roach stars Bette Midler, Kaitlyn Dever, Dan Levy, Sarah Paulson and Issa Rae playing characters from New York to Los Angeles coping with politics and the pandemic. The comedic satire tells contemporary stories of breaking down and breaking through that are funny, searing, poignant and now.

Lovecraft Country -- Available on Digital October 19th

Based on the 2016 novel of the same name by Matt Ruff, the drama series follows Atticus Freeman (Jonathan Majors) as he joins up with his friend Leti (Jurnee Smollett) and his Uncle George (Courtney B. Vance) to embark on a road trip across 1950s Jim Crow America in search of his missing father, Montrose Freeman (Michael Kenneth Williams). This begins a struggle to survive and overcome both the racist terrors of white America and the terrifying monsters that could be ripped from an H.P. Lovecraft paperback.

The Third Day -- Available on Digital October 20th

Told over the first three episodes, “Summer” stars Jude Law as Sam, a man who is drawn to a mysterious Island off the British coast where he encounters a group of islanders set on preserving their traditions at any cost. “Winter” unfolds over the latter three episodes and stars Naomie Harris as Helen, a strong-willed outsider who comes to the island seeking answers, but whose arrival precipitates a fractious battle to decide its fate.

Atlanta’s Missing and Murdered: The Lost Children -- Available on Digital October 30th

A five-part documentary series offering an unprecedented look at the abduction and murder of at least 30 African American children and young adults in Atlanta between 1979 and 1981. Forty years later, with the official re-opening of the case by Atlanta’s Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, the series tells the inside story of this shocking tragedy, shedding new light on the horrific killings through interviews with those closest to the children and the investigation, as well as exclusive archival material.
