Fox to deliver The Walking Dead on free VOD service in Russia

Fox International Channels (FIC) has signed a deal to provide the second series of its show The Walking Dead on advertising-supported internet video-on-demand in Russia immediately after the series premiers on the Fox Crime channel in the country on October 17.

The Walking Dead will be shown on the tvigle.ru portal and partner networks free-of-charge to end users, with the first series being made available to viewers two weeks earlier.

FIC is rolling out the series internationally immediately after its launch in the US on the AMC channel, with the first episode being shown in all international markets before the second episode airs in the US.
