Hemisphere Media Group, Inc. has struck a multi-year carriage agreement with fuboTV, Inc. As a result of the partnership, all five Hemisphere cable networks—WAPA América (only in the US), Cinelatino, Pasiones, CentroAméricaTV, and Televisión Dominicana, which serve the U.S. Hispanic/Latino market at large and cater to specific segments within the community with targeted, culturally relevant content—will be available in HD to subscribers of fuboTV’s Latino channel plan in the U.S. and Puerto Rico in Q1 of 2022. 

“Virtual MVPD platforms continue to experience robust growth, and we applaud our partners at fuboTV for seeking to offer a comprehensive viewing experience to consumers, particularly Hispanic/Latino viewers, by providing them with the high-quality differentiated content they seek. As content providers, it is imperative to stay at the forefront of new technologies and platforms, growing and developing with them, and so we look to create partnerships that keep us at the vanguard of the industry, simultaneously improving our ability to serve our audiences and deliver on our mission. We are thrilled about this new partnership which further amplifies our offering and allows us to improve our reach in markets populated by the communities we serve,” said Alan J. Sokol, president, and CEO of Hemisphere Media Group.
