The new month of March is fast approaching, and so is Showmax’s commitment to bringing you incredible show, series, and more entertainment to take you through the month, and for less. Here’s a look at some of the thrilling and exciting titles to look out for;
Series
When it comes to international series, Showmax in March is more about returning favorites than standout debuts. Some of the popular returnees include Chicago Med Season 8 (from 1 March), Alan Tudyk’s Resident Alien S3 (from 5 March), UK women’s prison drama Time S2 (8 March), Billions S7 (11 March) plus the new Quantum Leap, with Season 2’s weekly episodes landing from 12 March. Also, for those who prefer binge viewing, you’ll be able to watch Halo S2 in its entirety from 22 March.
If you’re in the mood for something fresh, a little different and globally diverse, there’s CANAL+’s International Emmy-nominated miniseries Infiniti, which mixes murder mystery and science fiction. The International Space Station (ISS) has gone silent when a waxed, decapitated body of one of the astronauts is found on a roof in Kazakhstan. A French astronaut (Céline Sallette), dismissed from the space programme, and a Kazakh cop (Daniyar Alshinov), disowned by his ranking hierarchy, set out to solve this paradox. Watch the six-episode Infiniti, with episode drops on Mondays, from 4 March.

Legal drama will be something for you to look out for as “Suits LA” is premiering its highly anticipated spin-off of the popular legal drama “Suits.” Starring Stephen Amell as Ted Black, a former federal prosecutor who now represents powerful clients in Los Angeles, the series delves into the complexities of his firm, which is facing a crisis. Viewers can expect a new take on the familiar legal world, with guest appearances from original “Suits” characters, including Gabriel Macht returning as Harvey Specter. You can stream “Suits LA” on Showmax, with new episodes landing on Thursdays.
Films
Before we jump into our top picks, in terms of box-set releases on Showmax in March, look out for all The Mummy films, including spin-off The Scorpion King, from 14 March; and a Fast and Furious dump, covering all the high-octane blockbusters from 4 to Hobbs & Shaw, on 7 March.
Kicking us off and taking us on a romantic rollercoaster is going to be “It Ends With Us”, a highly anticipated romantic drama film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s best-selling novel, starring Blake Lively as Lily Bloom. The story centers on Lily navigating complex relationships and confronting past traumas, as her first love re-enters her life, challenging her current relationship with a charming neurosurgeon and forcing difficult choices. The movie explores themes of love, abuse, and the strength required to break cycles, and you can stream it on Showmax starting Saturday, March 1st.
It’s otherwise a good month for action thrillers. Liam Neeson’s Retribution streams, starting 25th March, where our hero is forced to race around Berlin, completing illicit tasks or the bomb under his car seat will go off. Then there’s The Equalizer 3, which caps off leading man Denzel Washington and director Antoine Fuqua’s intense and acclaimed trilogy. Former government operative Robert McCall (Washington) has finally found peace in Southern Italy. However, he’s forced into violent action once more when his new friends are targeted by the Mafia. Also starring Dakota Fanning. Watch The Equalizer 3 now.
