Fox Family Movies will offer content from major studios Fox, Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Dreamworks, Touchstone, MGM and Paramount. Fully subtitled in local languages for Asian viewers, it will soon be 100 per cent dubbed locally.

The Asian TV premiere of G-Force produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, and Bandslam starring Vanessa Hudgens are among the programmes line up for the launch. Others include National Treasure, Lilo & Stitch, Finding Nemo, Toy Story, The Chronicles of Narnia, Shanghai Noon, Freaky Friday, The Princess Diaries 2: The Royal Engagement, 102 Dalmations, Eight Below, The Pacifier and the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

Zubin Gandevia, chief operating officer for Asia Pacific and the Middle East at Fox International Channels, said, “While the market is getting fragmented with channels catering to specific audiences, we believe that families as a whole is underserved. We have aggressive plans for Fox Family Movies including launching its high-definition service later this year and making it Asia’s first 100 per cent dubbed movie channel."
