The series’ official podcast launches on October 20th with a new episode each week detailing everything there is to know about the WATCHMEN universe.
MIAMI, FL., October 21, 2019 – HBO invites its audience to take the first steps into the new WATCHMEN universe. With the launch of its first podcast in Latin America, HBO’s new offering will allow fans to enrich their viewing experience through the digital world. The podcast will explore in depth all the details of the upcoming original series with new episodes each week.
Set in an alternative universe in which masked vigilantes operate outside the law, WATCHMEN embraces the nostalgia of one of the most influential graphic novels in history, as it paves its own path. Two passionate fans of the comic and lovers of pop culture, Fiorella Sargenti and Luciano Banchero, will be analyzing and commenting on each episode immediately following its premiere on HBO, examining its characters, creators and cast.
Made up of 10 episodes, the official podcast of the HBO series will be made available at no additional cost on HBO GO, hbolatam.com and YouTube, immediately after its broadcast on HBO. Shortly following, the episodes can also be accessed on Spotify, Google Podcast, Apple Podcast and Deezer.
HBO welcomes its audience to the WATCHMEN universe with this new special podcast. This initiative adds to the brand’s existing offerings that expand fans’ experience of their favorite HBO content beyond the on-screen premiere. Such is the case of HBO Extras, HBO’s second screen application that provides additional information including behind the scenes content, memes and other interesting facts about its main productions.
