True Detective
"True Detective" star Colin Ferrell in a still from Season 2. It looked like his character was killed off in a recent episode, but a plot contrivance kept him around. HBO

HBO NOW, the newest streaming service joining the likes of Hulu and Netflix, shares one key element with its competition. The maddening addition and subtraction of new content each month is still present in the network’s subscription-based platform.

With the month of June winding to a close, HBO NOW users are hoping for a good crop of TV, HBO originals and movies to get them through the warm weather. The network is adding a bunch of new content starting July 1 and even updating its very popular “Saturday Night Movies" lineup.

July will see more episodes of original series “True Detective,” “Ballers” and “The Brink.” HBO will also offer fans their chance to see “Game of Thrones” star Kit Harington in the comedy special “7 Days in Hell.” In it, he’ll star opposite Andy Samberg as two professional tennis players locked in the longest match in history. While those with a regular HBO subscription will see the special air on July 11, HBO NOW subscribers will be able to see it on July 8.

While there’s a ton of great new shows coming to HBO NOW in July, those with a pre-existing subscription should note that there are a few titles that are going away come on June 31. Now is your last chance to see movies like “12 Years a Slave,” “Dallas Buyers Club” and “Fast & Furious 6.”
