HOOQ Launches First Singaporean Original Series

The Asian VOD service HOOQ has launched its first Singaporean original series, the comedy She’s a Terrorist and I Love Her.

Created by Terence Chia and Haresh Tilani of comedy brand Ministry of Funny and inspired by their own brand of dark comedy, She’s a Terrorist and I Love Her follows the story of a desperate man who enters a fake marriage for a quick payout. To his horror, he finds out that his beautiful new wife is actually an extremist whose ultimate goal is to blow herself up in a catastrophic terrorist attack in Singapore. With true love as his only weapon, it’s a battle against time to win over his wife’s heart and stop the terror attack to save his beloved country.

This Singaporean series stars Tilani, alongside local breakout talents Benjamin Kheng, Munah Bagharib, Noah Yap and Caitanya Tan, in line with HOOQ’s hyper-local approach to entertainment and commitment to showcasing more authentic stories told by Asia, for Asia.

“This successful partnership with Ministry of Funny is a true testament to the abundance of filmmaking talent in Asia and highlights the need for HOOQ to continue supporting and uncovering the best creatives in our region,” said Jennifer Batty, chief content officer at HOOQ.
