ICE ON FIRE, PRODUCED AND NARRATED BY LEONARDO DICAPRIO, DEBUTS 12 JUNE

PHILIPPINES, 17 MAY 2019 – ICE ON FIRE, an eye-opening documentary that focuses on many never-before-seen solutions designed to slow down our escalating environmental crisis, goes beyond the current climate change narrative and offers hope that we can actually stave off the worst effects of global warming.

Produced by Oscar®-winner Leonardo DiCaprio, George DiCaprio and Mathew Schmid, and directed by Leila Conners, the film will have its world premiere at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival as an Official Selection on Wednesday, 22 May. ICE ON FIRE debuts same time as the U.S. on Wednesday 12 June at 8am, exclusively on HBO GO. The documentary will also be available on HBO SIGNATURE in August 2019.

Eleven years after Conners’ first collaboration with DiCaprio on “The 11th Hour,”which emphasised the problems of climate change, ICE ON FIRE instead focuses on the cutting-edge research behind today’s climate science – and the innovations aimed at reducing carbon in the atmosphere, which could pave the way for a reduction in the global temperature rise and a benefit to the planet’s life systems.

“My partners and I made ICE ON FIRE to give a voice to the scientists and researchers who work tirelessly every day on the front lines of climate change,” says producer and narrator Leonardo DiCaprio. “We wanted to make a film that depicts the beauty of our planet while highlighting much-needed solutions across renewable energy and carbon sequestration. This film does more than show what is at stake if we continue on a course of inaction and complacency – it shows how, with the help of dedicated scientists, we can all fight back. I hope audiences will be inspired to take action to protect our beautiful planet.”

With sweeping cinematography of a world worth saving, ICE ON FIRE was filmed across the globe, from Norway to Alaska, Iceland to Colorado, Switzerland to Costa Rica to Connecticut. The film highlights firsthand accounts of people at the forefront of the climate crisis, with insights from scientists, farmers, innovators and others.

ICE ON FIRE emphasises the importance of an immediate, two-pronged approach to reversing the crisis: reducing carbon emissions through traditional renewable energy sources and new ones, like tidal energy, and implementing “drawdown” measures, focusing on methods for drawing down and sequestering carbon, including direct air capture, sea farms, urban farms, biochar, marine snow, bionic leaves and others.

While much of the political and economic focus has been on the energy sector, the film points out that drawdown (pulling CO2 out of the atmosphere and oceans and sequestering it underground or into new materials) is perhaps the best hope for mitigating climate change.

The film visits places such as: the Usal Redwood Forrest Foundation in northern California, highlighting a carbon-storage project that focuses on reforestation and creates “biochar” to put CO2 back into the soil; Ron Finley’s urban farm in Los Angeles, where members of the community grow food that takes carbon out of the air and is nutritious; Climeworks’ nimble direct air capture machine in Zurich; and Thimble Island Ocean Farm off the coast of Connecticut, where owner Bren Smith grows shellfish and seaweed that soak up more carbon than land-based plants and can be used for food, animal feed and fertilizer.

ICE ON FIRE finds that while the risks and urgency may be higher than ever today, there are also greater opportunities for innovative solutions, offering a realistic but hopeful perspective on a key global issue that demands our attention.

ICE ON FIRE is directed by Leila Conners; narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio; producers, Leonardo DiCaprio, Mathew Schmid and Leila Conners; executive producers, George DiCaprio, Roee Sharon Peled; cinematography by Harun Mehmedinovic. For HBO: executive producers, Nancy Abraham and Lisa Heller.

ICE ON FIRE debuts same time as the U.S. on Wednesday 12 June at 8am, exclusively on HBO GO. The documentary will also be available on HBO SIGNATURE in August 2019.

GAME OF THRONES: SEASON 8 EPISODE 5 BEHIND THE SCENES VIDEOS AVAILABLE

The Series Culminates On 20 May Same Time As The U.S. At 9am Exclusively On HBO

PHILIPPINES, 14 MAY 2019 – Following the penultimate episode premiere of GAME OF THRONES Season 8 yesterday, HBO has made available several behind-the-scenes videos regarding the episode.

David Benioff (Executive Producer, Writer) and D.B. Weiss (Executive Producer, Writer) break down Episode 5 in ‘Inside The Episode’ – 

“Jon Snow is someone that she’s fallen in love with and as far as she’s concerned by this point Jon has betrayed her by telling people about his true identity, and also the fact that he’s unable to return her affections at this point. I think that when she says “let it be fear” she’s resigning herself to the fact that she may have to get things done in a way that isn’t pleasant and she may have to get things done in a way that is horrible to lots of people. She chose violence, and a Targaryen choosing violence is a pretty terrifying thing.”

“I don’t think she decided ahead of time that she was going to do what she did. And then she sees the Red Keep which is to her, the home that her family built when they first came over to this country 300 years ago. It’s in that moment on the walls of King’s Landing where she’s looking at that symbol of everything that was taken from her, when she makes the decision to make this personal.”

In addition, a 35-minute featurette, The Game Revealed Episode 5, delves into the astounding set builds, stunt work, and battles of “The Bells.” Production designer Deb Riley, SFX supervisor Sam Conway, VFX producer Steve Kullback, and prosthetics designer Barrie Gower give exclusive interviews alongside series creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, episode director Miguel Sapochnik, actors Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister), Maisie Williams (Arya Stark) and more to explain how the massacre of King’s Landing – from the destruction of the Iron Fleet, to the “Clegane Bowl,” to the fall of the Red Keep – came to life.

The series finale of the Emmy®-winning HBO Original series GAME OF THRONES premieres same time as the U.S. on Monday, 20 May at 9am exclusively on HBO. 

New trailer for the final episode can be viewed here.

Based on the popular book series “A Song of Ice and Fire,” by George R.R. Martin, this HBO award-winning fantasy series chronicles an epic struggle for power in a vast and violent kingdom. Members of the ensemble cast for the eighth season include Emmy® and Golden Globe winner Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington, Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams.

NEW LIMITED SERIES CATCH-22 TO DEBUT ON 18 MAY

Executive Produced By Academy Award® And Golden Globe® Winner George Clooney.

PHILIPPINES, 14 MAY 2019 – The highly anticipated limited series CATCH-22 will debut with all six episodes arriving on Saturday, 18 May exclusively on HBO GO. The series will subsequently premiere on HBO on Tuesday, 4 June at 9.15pm. Based on Joseph Heller’s seminal novel of the same name, CATCH-22 is executive produced by Academy Award® and Golden Globe® winner George Clooney who will also co-star.

CATCH-22 follows the adventures and misadventures of a US air squadron in Italy in World War II. Yossarian, a bombardier, whose frantic obsession every time he goes up on a mission is “to come down alive”. His odds of success at such a simple aim keep getting worse because Colonel Cathcart keeps raising the number of missions the men have to fly. More than the retreating Germans, the real enemy for Yossarian and his rag-tag bunch of friends is the bureaucracy of the military, inverting logic at every turn. The pinnacle of this is Catch-22, a military by-law which states that if you fly your missions, you’re crazy, and don’t have to fly them; all you have to do is ask. But if you ask not to, then you’re sane, and so you have to fly them.

In addition to George Clooney (“Up in the Air,” “The Ides of March”) the cast includes Christopher Abbott (“Girls,” “The Sinner”), Academy Award® winner Grant Heslov (“Argo”), Emmy® winner Kyle Chandler (“The Wolf of Wall Street,” “Bloodline”), Golden Globe® winner Hugh Laurie (“The Night Manager,” “House”) and Academy Award® nominee Giancarlo Giannini (“Quantum of Solace,” “Casino Royale”).

GAME OF THRONES: SEASON 8 EPISODE 4 BEHIND THE SCENES VIDEOS AVAILABLE ONLINE

New Episodes Premiere Same Time As The U.S., Every Monday At 9am Exclusively On HBO

SINGAPORE, 7 MAY 2019 – Following the fourth episode premiere of GAME OF THRONES Season 8 yesterday, HBO has made available several behind-the-scenes videos regarding the episode.

·         HBO Asia | Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4: Cast Commentary Part 2
·         HBO Asia | Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4: Inside the Episode
·         HBO Asia | Game of Thrones Season 8: The Game Revealed: The Last of the Starks

David Benioff (Executive Producer, Writer) and D.B. Weiss (Executive Producer, Writer) break down Episode 4 in ‘Inside The Episode’ – 

On Dany and Jon – “After the feast she comes to talk to him and with the intention of making this all work out, of bringing things back to the way they were before. There’s a moment where they’re kissing and it seems like things are kind of getting to where they were but it’s almost as if he remembers all the sudden what she really is. It’s tense for him. For her, she grew up hearing all these stories about how their ancestors who were related to each other were also lovers and it doesn’t seem that strange to her, for him it is a strange thing. Once Dany introduces the idea that everything can be as it was if John keeps this secret button down and tells no one. She’s introducing a conflict that plays forward.”

And on Brienne and Jaime – “The vulnerability that they show runs very counter to who they are as people. I do believe it when Jaime decides to stay behind with Brienne, it’s a choice that he makes with every intention of seeing it through. When he hears what Cersei is done, I think that’s the turning point for him. At that point, Jaime really has to take a really long, uncomfortable look at who he really is. As much as Jaime cares for Brienne and admires her and loves her, he’s got almost an addiction to Cersei that he just can’t break. So even though he’s given a kind of a chance at happiness and some kind of different life for himself, he can’t take it – he makes the choice to go back to Cersei.”

In addition, an 18-minute featurette, The Game Revealed: The Last of the Starks, offers fans exclusive insights into how Game of Thrones’ “The Last of the Starks” came together. Featuring interviews with director David Nutter, creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, actors Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark) and more, Episode 4 of this behind-the-scenes series takes viewers through the funeral and feast at Winterfell, Euron taking on Daenerys’ fleet, and Cersei’s power move.

The fifth episode of the 6-episode final season of the Emmy®-winning HBO Original series GAME OF THRONES premieres same time as the U.S. on Monday, 13 May at 9am exclusively on HBO. Episode 5 trailer can be viewed here.
