The 61st Monte-Carlo Television Festival: the world premiere brand new dark action comedy Ze Network starring David Hasselhoff

The 61st Monte-Carlo Television Festival, to be held from 17-21 June, will host the world premiere screening of the first two episodes of brand new dark, action comedy, Ze Network, starring David Hasselhoff.

Ze Network stars actor and musician David Hasselhoff (Hoff The Record, Knight Rider) as “David Hasselhoff”, along with award-winning actor Henry Hübchen (Go for Zucker) as “Henry Hübchen”. Both stars will attend the public screening on Sunday 19 June at 19.15 at the Grimaldi Forum, along with producers Siegfried Kamml and Christian Alvart.

The series tells the fictional story of Hollywood actor David Hasselhoff’s new lead role in a theatre play in Germany which plunges him into the center of an international conspiracy of former cold war assassins, while all around him the fabric of reality seems to break down.
