Get ready to embark on a laughter-filled adventure like never before as Prime Video releases today the official trailer of the much-anticipated original series, Comedy Island Philippines. Breaking new ground as the first Filipino Original of its kind on Prime Video, this show promises a unique blend of reality, comedy, and adventure, all set against the backdrop of a mysterious island.
Comedy Island Philippines represents a monumental stride in Amazon Studios‘ commitment to the Philippines, marrying the thrill of an adventure show with the hilarity of a comedy special. This innovative series showcases the remarkable talents of some of the country’s finest comedians, actors, and social media stars.
The show’s massive sets, strategically located on an enigmatic island, are ready to witness a showdown of wit, humor, and camaraderie as the contestants find themselves marooned on the mysterious Tawa-Tawa Island.
