iflix is thrilled to debut NBCUniversal’s new supernatural thriller, Midnight, Texas. Subscribers in the Philippines can stream or download new episodes every Tuesday, same day as U.S. broadcast – only on iflix.
Midnight, Texas stars François Arnaud (The Borgias) as Manfred, a charming, powerful psychic who can communicate with spirits and finds safety in Midnight by surrounding himself with both human and supernatural allies. Midnight is also home to Bobo (Dylan Bruce, Orphan Black), proprietor of Midnight's local pawn shop; Fiji (Parisa Fitz-Henley, Luke Cage), a witch who owns the local wiccan shop; Olivia (Arielle Kebbel, Ballers), a mysterious assassin with a weapon for every occasion; Joe (Jason Lewis, Sex and the City), an angel who knows all of Midnight's secrets, having been around for millennia; Lemuel (Peter Mensah, True Blood), a wise vampire with a long history in Midnight; Creek (Sarah Ramos, Parenthood), an aspiring writer with big dreams who learns her family is harboring a deep secret; and Rev. Emilio Sheehan (Yul Vazquez, Captain Phillips), who can't resist the pull of a full moon.
As the town members fight off outside pressures from ever-suspicious cops, deadly biker gangs and their own dangerous pasts, they band together and form an unlikely but strong family. Midnight, Texas is based on the best-selling book series by Charlaine Harris (author of the novels that inspired True Blood), executive produced by Monica Owusu-Breen (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) and David Janollari (Six Feet Under) and produced by Universal Television and David Janollari Entertainment.
Midnight, Texas joins iflix’s extensive portfolio of popular shows, including Emerald City, The Magicians, Mr. Robot, Teen Wolf, Black Sails, Fargo and many more, making iflix the premiere destination for critically acclaimed, world-class entertainment.
