SINGAPORE, JULY 31, 2016 – HBO has announced the premiere dates of three brand-new HBO Original series – WESTWORLD, INSECURE AND DIVORCE, which will premiere at the same time as the U.S. on HBO in October.

In addition, HBO has renewed the comedy series BALLERS for a third season. “Dwayne Johnson, Stephen Levinson, Mark Wahlberg and the rest of the BALLERS team have once again delivered a winner for our viewers,” said Casey Bloys, president, HBO Programming. “We look forward to another great season of BALLERS next year.”

Set at the intersection of the near future and the reimagined past, it explores a world in which every human appetite, no matter how noble or depraved, can be indulged.
