![]() Baz Luhrmann’s biopic stars Austin Butler as the King of rock’n’roll in a tour de force performance, alongside Tom Hanks as Colonel Tom Parker, Elvis’s manager that helped launch him to superstardom. ![]() It’s a pretty light month for debuts on HBO Max, with the biggest new title coming to the platform being the box office hit Elvis (September 2) from earlier this year. Some other movies to keep an eye on this month include the Austin Powers trilogy, the Patrick Swayze 80’s classic Road House, Heath Ledger’s A Knight’s Tale, as well as the Mark Wahlberg-Jason Statham action comedy The Italian Job (all September 1). Director Rob Zombie is also bringing his wicked sense of humor to the classic 60s sitcom The Munsters, with a movie adaptation of the show coming on September 27. If you’re looking for something a bit lighter, on the same day Netflix is debuting a documentary about the crazy GameStop stock story that took hold during the pandemic with Eat the Rich: The GameStop Saga (September 28). This film is sure to generate some major buzz for the platform this year. Ana De Armas ( Knives Out) is playing Monroe, while Adrien Brody stars as Arthur Miller and Bobby Cannavalle as Joe DiMaggio, two of Monroe’s former flames. It’s based on the Joyce Carol Oates novel, which was inspired by Monroe’s life and will be a warts-and-all portrayal, which is why it was given an NC-17 rating. The most intriguing release for Netflix this month may also be the most controversial movie of the fall season: Director Andrew Dominik’s long-awaited film Blonde (September 28) about the life of actress Marilyn Monroe. It’s also a great binge, so if you haven’t watched Seasons 1 through 4 yet, now is your chance. The show is the perfect mix of action, soapy drama, comedy and all the 80s references you need. Last season finished off with Daniel and Johnny (William Zabka) continuing their quest against Cobra Kai, with Daniel bringing in another ally-Karate Kid Part II’s Chozen Toguchi (Yuji Okumoto)-from Japan to help get his dojo back in shape. Karate Kid Part III villain Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) returned last season, so antagonist Mike Barnes (Sean Kanan) will be back, presumably as another obstacle for Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio). The show has been one of Netflix’s most successful in recent years and the series keeps growing, adding characters and picking up storylines from the original films, and this season will be no different. Season 5 Cobra Kai (September 9) returns this month, continuing the Karate Kid story decades after the film franchise started up.
