Sony Pictures Television (SPT) has bought Keifer Sutherland web series The Confession to air on its international channels and branded online platforms.
The Digital Broadcasting Group-produced digital series, which also stars John Hurt, will debut on AXN Korea on September 12 before launching on AXN Central Europe’s 10 localised websites on September 20.
It will then roll out to territories including Spain, Portugal, Latin America, Hong Kong, Singapore, Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Japan – with the show to premiere on AXN-branded platforms in 125 countries in total.
The 10 episode short-form series comes with four back-story episodes and behind-the-scenes footage, which combined makes up around two hours. SPT says will be available “in varying formats” across the channels and on AXN.com in every region.
SPT will also handle additional worldwide distribution of the show, while Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will handle digital and DVD distribution exclusively outside of North America.
“The Confession is one of the highest-quality multi-platform series we’ve seen in our many years developing and buying content for our TV and digital platforms,” said SPT executive VP of programming and production for networks, Marie Jacobson.
