PH audiences to be treated to ‘Doctor Foster’

PH audiences to be  treated to ‘Doctor Foster’PH audiences to be treated to ‘Doctor Foster’BBC Studios and ABS-CBN Corporation announced a new scripted format agreement that will see gripping psychological drama “Doctor Foster” remade for the Filipino audience.

Originally written by Mike Bartlett and produced by Drama Republic, the BAFTA award-winning series centers around a trusted doctor whose life implodes when she suspects her husband of having an affair. The local series will be made by ABS-CBN Entertainment and will go into production later this year.

It will be executive produced by ABS-CBN president and CEO Carlo L. Katigak, COO of broadcast Cory Vidanes, entertainment production head Laurenti Dyogi and Dreamscape Entertainment head Deo Endrinal.

André Renaud, SVP Format Sales for BBC Studios, said: “It truly is an honor to know that ‘Doctor Foster’ will be coming to life in the Philippines under the extraordinary creative team at ABS-CBN Entertainment. I know that they will not only craft a unique and special story, but that they will capture the complex struggle of modern relationships from the perspective of the strong female character that sits at the heart of this series. I am confident this will be a hit among the Filipino audiences.”

Vidanes said: “We are most grateful to BBC Studios for entrusting ABS-CBN Entertainment with the Philippine version of ‘Doctor Foster.’ It is a privilege for us to be able to produce this highly engaging and relatable story for the Filipino audience. A scorned woman’s strength is real as she fights to stay whole when the marriage and family she values most is falling apart. True to our commitment to serve the Filipino, we are excited to create our own retelling of this beautiful story, to see the characters come alive with unique Filipino elements that will definitely excite our audiences.”

The agreement will make the Philippines the sixth international market to license the “Doctor Foster” format, which has already been adapted in South Korea, France, Russia, Turkey and India. A second series has aired in France and is currently in production in India. In South Korea, the format (known locally as “The World of the Married”) was the country’s highest-rated drama in cable TV history.
