The Flash

Based on the popular DC Comics character Barry Allen/Flash (Grant Gustin), this popular superhero needs no introduction.  Bestowed with superhuman speed, The Flash takes crime scene investigation and crime fighting to a whole new level! The fifth season of The Flash will play heavily on Nora's (Jessica Parker Kennedy) big mistake at the end of season four.  Fans can also expect a new super villain to go head on with Flash and his friends as hinted by showrunners.  Catch all 5 seasons of this People’s Choice Award and new episodes of latest season winning series exclusively on HOOQ from 10 October onward.

Supergirl

Based on the DC Comics character of the same name, Supergirl comes back for a fourth season starring Melissa Benoist as Kara Danvers aka Kara Zor-El (Supergirl)!  Joining the main cast in Season 4 will be Jesse Rath as Brainiac 5/Brainy, April Parker Jones as new character Colonel Haley and Sam Witwer as Agent Liberty.  The last season closed with Supergirl emerging from the woods somewhere in Siberia after defeating the Worldkiller Reign (Odette Annable) to save the world.  This season, our favorite female superhero will continue to take on evil forces as she saves the world from impending dangers.  Except not all evil are colored the same.  So how will Supergirl conquer her fears and bring hope to the world again?  Stay tuned as viewers can definitely expect massive plot twists and developments in the new season starting this October 15.

“Fans of The Flash and Supergirl will not be disappointed by the latest seasons – it is the most exciting season by far!  In addition, October’s content line up promises new and exciting movies and TV series from both Hollywood and Pinoy cinema for a truly binge-worthy month ahead!” said Jeff Remigio, Content and Programming Head of HOOQ Philippines.
