BE: Viaplay Belgium's April Slate Featuring Threesome S2 and Jana, Marked for Life
 Viaplay’s nieuwe releases voor april Van de duistere thriller Jana, Marked for Life tot  Nu is het perfecte moment om Viaplay uit te proberen… Na de Belgische lancering via Prime in maart, waarin onder andere de veelgeprezen true crime-serie The Hunt en de ontroerende Nederlandse Rutger Hauer-documentaire Like Tears in Rain in première gingen, blijft Viaplay in april verrassen met exclusieve en meeslepende content. Dit zijn de hoogtepunten van de maand: • Hapless (Seizoenen 1 & 2 - 1 april) – Satirische comedy over een journalist die absurde verhalen najaagt. De volledige lijst met releases van april en details vind je hieronder. We nodigen je uit om Viaplay’s exclusieve Amerikaanse premières te ontdekken, met het allerbeste van Europese televisie. SPOTLIGHT: NORDIC NOIR Exclusief voor België Met zijn beklemmende spanning, gelaagde personages en psychologische diepgang is Jana, Marked for Life een thriller die kijkers op het puntje van hun stoel houdt.  Wanneer een hooggeplaatst lid van de migratieraad op gruwelijke wijze wordt vermoord, raakt de ambitieuze aanklager Jana Berzelius verstrikt in een meedogenloze zaak die angstaanjagend bekend aanvoelt. Terwijl ze dieper in het onderzoek duikt, ontrafelt ze een web van leugens en geweld – en ontdekt ze dat sporen uit haar eigen verleden verborgen liggen in de nasleep van de misdaad. Zal Jana eindelijk de waarheid vinden waar ze al zo lang naar zoekt, of zal deze duistere zaak haar volledig opslokken. SPOTLIGHT: DRAMA Threesome (Seizoen 2) Het tweede seizoen van Threesome is een rauwe en meeslepende verkenning van liefde, verlies en de pijn van afscheid nemen. Het laat zien hoe snel liefde kan veranderen, hoe een breuk niet alleen een relatie, maar een heel bestaan kan doen wankelen.  Liefde kan alles overwinnen… tot het moment dat het niet meer zo is. In het tweede seizoen van Threesome escaleert het liefdesdrama tussen David en Siri volledig wanneer een schokkende ontdekking alles verandert. Wanneer David een bericht van John leest, beseft hij dat Siri hem heeft bedrogen. Woede en wanhoop nemen bezit van hem, maar hij zwijgt en begint in stilte de waarheid te ontrafelen. Hij zoekt John op en confronteert uiteindelijk Siri, die wanhopig probeert haar leugens te maskeren. Maar het is te laat. De pijn is te groot en David neemt een definitieve beslissing: hij verlaat haar. Voor Siri stort de wereld in. APRIL 2025: VOLLEDIGE LIJST MET VIAPLAY RELEASES Hapless (Seizoen 1 & 2)
