Fox Launches FlashForward in Asian Television

FOX, the world’s number one U.S. series channel, has launched its latest science-fiction television series Flash Forward via an exclusive press screening to select members of the media and FOX trade partners at Manila Ocean Park’s White Moon Bar.

“We are thrilled to finally bring this global blockbuster TV series to our local cable TV channels. I’m sure that viewers will find Flash Forward’s 23 episodes worth watching with its special effects and suspenseful storytelling,” said Jude Turcuato, Fox International Channels territory        director.

The event became even more exciting when the guests were offered a chance to have their own “flashforward” experience or a glimpse of their possible future through a tarot card reading by members of Spirit Questors Inc.

Flash Forward’s pilot episode was shown over dinner, and guests were amazed at the sci-fi television series’ impressive visual effects, the same production element that attracted 12.5 million viewers when it was launched in the U.S.

After the dinner and premiere screening, the guests were treated to an equally-exciting lights and fountain show at the Manila Ocean Park.

A big budget sci-fi series in the tradition of Lost, FlashForward stars British actor Joseph Fiennes (Shakespeare in Love and Enemy at the Gates) who plays Los Angeles FBI agent Mark Benford investigating a mysterious event that caused nearly everyone on the planet to simultaneously lose consciousness for 2 minutes and 17 seconds. During this brief “blackout,” people saw glimpses of their lives on April 29, 2010 or six months into the future—a global “flashforward.”

FlashForward also stars Sonya Walger (Lost) as trauma surgeon Dr. Olive Benford, John Cho (Harold and Kumar) as FBI special agent Demetri Noh, Christine Woods (House) as FBI agent Janis Hawk, Courtney Vance (Law & Order) as FBI assistant director Stanford Wedeck, Zachary Knighton (Ed) as surgical intern Bryce Varley, and Bryan O’Byrne (The International) as technician Aaron Stark.
