On August 16, HBO Max subscribers can check out Rick and Morty: The Anime. In this adaptation, Rick can be seen having some leisure time in a pseudo-world situated between multiverses. Meanwhile, Summer and Space Beth are warring with the Galactic Federation, and Morty is depicted falling in love with a mysterious girl, who unbeknownst to Morty is a temporal being.

Then on August 18, the documentary Chimp Crazy drops on HBO Max. This documentary follows Tonia Haddix, a nurse-turned-exotic animal broker, who claims to be the “Dolly Parton of chimps.” In this documentary, Haddix is shown spending her days taking care of animals in captivity. However, her strong bond and affection with one particular chimpanzee put her in a complicated situation with authorities and an animal rights group.

Also releasing on HBO Max this week as part of its schedule is The Legend of Tarzan.

The Legend of Tarzan is an action-adventure fantasy movie starring Alexander Skarsgard in the title role.
