In a dazzling showcase at the White Bay Power Station in Rozelle, Foxtel, Binge, and Kayo unveiled their ambitious entertainment and sports slate for 2026. The DAZN-owned platforms introduced new local scripted series, returning favorites, and a robust lineup of international titles and sports coverage, all under the theme “Oh So Satisfying.”
Leading the charge are Australian scripted commissions such as Run and Tough Love, alongside the reality co-production Apocalypse with the UK’s Channel 4, where participants are challenged to survive a simulated end-of-the-world scenario. Returning local favorites include Colin from Accounts and High Country, while international offerings feature All Her Fault and Death of Bunny Munro.
New and Returning Local Productions
The announcement highlighted Run, a crime drama inspired by notorious Australian bank robber Brenden Abbott, starring George Mason and Robyn Malcolm. Meanwhile, Tough Love, a comedic exploration of sibling dynamics, promises both humor and heart.
Returning series include the third season of Colin from Accounts and the much-anticipated second season of High Country, starring Leah Purcell. The property series Selling Houses Australia returns for its 18th season, promising fresh insights into the Australian real estate market.
International Titles and Global Appeal
Foxtel’s international slate is equally compelling, with the Melbourne-made thriller All Her Fault starring Sarah Snook, and the period drama Amadeus featuring Will Sharpe. Other notable mentions include the star-studded The Five-Star Weekend and The Death of Bunny Munro with Matt Smith.
Continuing their tradition of bringing global hits to Australian screens, Foxtel will also air new seasons of beloved series like Outlander and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, alongside fresh content such as DMV, a workplace comedy starring Harriet Dyer.
Unmatched Sports Coverage
Foxtel and Kayo are set to maintain their dominance in sports broadcasting. According to Patrick Delany, CEO, “We are Australia’s home of sport, offering unparalleled live game and show production with no ad breaks in play and 4K coverage.”
Sports fans can look forward to extensive coverage of AFL, NRL, and cricket, as well as motorsport events like Formula 1 and Supercars. Kayo Sports will also continue to offer comprehensive golf coverage, including all four majors and the PGA Tour of Australasia.
“We are the place to watch Australia’s biggest sports live – every game of every round of AFL and NRL, every Formula 1, Supercars and MotoGP race, all four Golf majors, and every major cricket event on home soil this summer.” — Patrick Delany, CEO
