The critically acclaimed Mad Dogs series will premiere exclusively on video-on-demand service, HOOQ, on January 22 (January 23 in Manila) worldwide, same day as the U.S. telecast.
Distributed by Sony Pictures Entertainment, Mad Dogs is created for the digital platform with all 10 episodes, shot entirely in 4K, dropping in at the same time, according to HOOQ Philippines’ marketing manager, Sheila Paul.
Mad Dogs is a remake of a British TV series from 2011. Starring Steve Zahn and Micheal Imperioli, this edgy thriller is a story about four friends who visit their rich but unhappy buddy Milo, played by Billy Zane, who lives in a beautiful beachside villa in Belize, a country in Central America.
