There can only be more exciting things in store for Filipino binge-watchers when a streaming service that delivers the best of premium quality Asian content joins forces with the premiere media and entertainment company in the Philippines to bring the best of world-class Filipino entertainment to a wider audience. WeTV iflix has forged a game-changing partnership with ABS-CBN Entertainment where several of its Primetime Bida offerings will become available on the platform before its television airing.
In keeping its legacy of complementing compelling stories with powerful performances from some of the country's well-loved and most sought after actors and actresses, WeTV and iflix subscribers will be able to stream some of ABS-CBN's series that cater to the tastes of Filipino viewers up to two days before they air on local TV. Leading the opening salvo of this game-changing partnership is FPJ's Ang Probinsyano topbilled by Coco Martin which is now on its sixth year and one of ABS-CBN's longest-running teleseryes. Viewers can get ahead of staying engaged with the story of Ricardo Dalisay as he stands for what is right and fights in order to protect his family and community as a new episode premieres on WeTV and iflix VIP 50 hours before it airs on local TV and even ahead of other streaming platform where it is available.
For those looking for an uplifting story during these challenging times, the inspirational drama series Huwag Kang Mangamba starring Andrea Brilliantes, Seth Fedelin, Francine Diaz and Kyle Echarri, also known as The Gold Squad, is most timely. Premiering on WeTV and iflix VIP after its local television broadcast and set in the fictional town of Hermoso, the story revolves around two girls who die in separate incidents but are miraculously brought back to life. Their new lease in life leads to more miracles and eventually becomes a catalyst for a spiritual revival around the town with the revival of an old church. Both FPJ's Ang Probinsyano and Huwag Kang Mangamba will also be available on WeTV and iflix for FREE as catch-up two to three hours after their simultaneous airing on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, iWantTFC, A2Z and TV5.
Binge-watchers can also look forward to the sizzling new primetime drama series Init Sa Magdamag starring Gerald Anderson, JM De Guzman and Yam Concepcion which starts on April 17, 46 hours prior to its free and pay TV broadcast, just in time for the summer season. The story focuses on a love triangle marked not only by love but also passion, betrayal and a sense of family. The sexy new drama series will become available for free on WeTV and iflix two to three shows after the show airs. To enjoy ABS-CBN Primetime Bida shows first-hand, you can avail any of WeTV and iflix's monthly (Php99), quarterly (Php269), and annual (Php999) VIP subscription packages. Just download the WeTV and iflix apps from Google Play and Apple App Stores, sign up for an account, and start watching!!
“One of our main goals for this year has been to give our users the power of choice when it comes to their entertainment, especially now that we are spending more time at home. Bringing excellent local content and compelling stories to you first is a big step in that direction, and we are excited to have ABS CBN as our partner in this endeavor,” says WeTV and iflix Country Manager for the Philippines, Georgette Tengco. “We look forward to delivering more of the Primetime Bida shows in the years ahead, so do watch out for that.”
