SPI International has launched FilmBox Action on StarTimes in Africa on 1st April, 2023.“To keep offering fresh content of quality on StarTimes is one of our long-term pursuits,” said Lily Meng, Head of StarTimes Media Division.
The channel will be available in the Basic and Smart packages on DTT at channel number 60 and DTH at channel 140, respectively. "We enjoy the collaboration with SPI International and trust that the synergy will lead to more fascinating chemical reactions in future, which can benefit our audiences across Africa. FilmBox Action will definitely prove its charm once it’s on air. Stay tuned to StarTimes for all these exciting movies and series," Meng said.
FilmBox Action offers a slate of action-packed movies and series, including Hollywood blockbusters starring popular action cinema stars like Bruce Willis, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Jet Li, Jackie Chan and many others. With its unique selection of adrenaline-fueled programming, the channel is set to become a go-to destination for action fans in Africa.
"We are excited to expand our relationship with StarTimes and bring FilmBox Action to their platform. We are long term partners and we believe FilmBox Action is the perfect addition to the StarTimes existing movie offering. Together we have already made Dizi channel, our Turkish drama channel a huge success and we expect the same for FilmBox Action,” Georgina Twiss, MD of Western Europe and Africa at SPI International said.
