The Oath marks HOOQ’s inaugural
into Hollywood Originals
SINGAPORE – HOOQ, a subscrip-
tion video-on-demand (SVoD)
service provider in South-east
Asia, has announced its first foray
into Hollywood Originals with The
Oath. The 10-episode series is
available on HOOQ 24 hours after
the telecast in the US.
Set in Los Angeles, the crime
drama dives deep into a world of
gangs made up of those sworn
to protect and defend. The Oath
sheds light on corruption and
“police gang” culture by examin-
ing secret societies that are nearly
impossible to join. Only a selected
few make the cut, but once inside,
members will do what they must to
protect each other from enemies
not only on the outside but also
from within.
The Oath is directed by Jeff T
Thomas, and stars Ryan Kwanten,
Cory Hardrict, Katrina Law, Arlen
Escarpeta, JJ Soria, and Game of
Thrones alum, Sean Bean.
