Through its newly-forged deal with The Walt Disney Company Southeast Asia, HOOQ has acquired exclusive Subscription Video On-Demand (SVOD) rights to bring Marvel's Inhumans, Marvel's Runaways and Marvel's Cloak and Dagger to its subscribers in the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia and Singapore on the same day of their US telecast. All episodes of these three new thrilling action-packed shows will become available on HOOQ for online and offline viewing with Marvel's Inhumans to have additional exclusive content which is not seen on its worldwide theatrical premiere held in IMAX theatres.

Marvel's Inhumans, which will be shown by the end of September, is the first series from Marvel Studios and the first to be shot completely in IMAX cameras. After the Royal Family of Inhumans is splintered by a military coup, they barely escape to Hawaii where they find that their surprising interaction with the lush world and humanity around them could not only save them but Earth itself as well. Meanwhile, set to make its digital debut on November 21, 2017, Marvel's Runaways is the first television adaptation of a Marvel comic of the same name where a band of teenagers face never-before-seen adversaries with their newfound powers amidst the fact that their parents are supervillains.

Then there is Marvel's Cloak and Dagger which revolves around the crime fighting duo of Tyrone Johnson and Tarely Bowen sharing a symbolic relationship as Light and Darkness incarnate. The series is set to make its way to digital audiences by next year. These new shows will be the latest addition to HOOQ's library of Marvel superhero movies and television shows which include Agents of SHIELD, Agent Carter, Guardians of the Galaxy Volumes 1 and 2, Thor, The Avengers, Iron Man and Captain America: The First Avenger among others.

For HOOQ chief executive officer Peter Bithos, the three new Marvel shows becoming available on the same day of their US telecast is something that the platform should be proud of and will eventually bring Marvel superheroes closer to its subscribers. This development is just the beginning of more things to come for HOOQ as it continues to deliver fresh, compelling and edgy stories to binge-watchers across different parts of Asia.
