MORITZ OTTO IS ONE VERY HOT CRUISE DOCTOR IN NEW ACORN TV MYSTERY TV SERIES

   THE CRUISE DOCTOR   

NEW GERMAN TV SERIES ON ACORN TV

Even if you are not much into German series, I think insanely gorgeous Moritz Otto is more than enough of a reason to check out six episode series THE CRUISE DOCTOR (Der Schiffsarzt) which aired previously on German RTL Plus but will hit Acorn TV from today Monday April 6th available for your viewing pleasure also on their channel at Prime Video and I think you can stream it on Apple TV too. The story follows Dr. Eric Leonhard (Moritz Otto), a surgeon and ER doctor who signs on as the physician on a cruise ship. The crew don’t suspect that the real reason he’s joined them is to conduct his own investigation into the disappearance of his pregnant wife, Sarah, who vanished without a trace several months ago. With the police investigation having yielded no results, and Eric convinced that Sarah and his child, who must’ve been born by now, are still alive, he is determined to find them. Seeing a photograph of Sarah at the bar of a cruise ship is what prompts him to sign on as the ship’s doctor. Once on board, though, Eric trusts no one, as any crew member could potentially be involved in the disappearance.

The film is out April 10th in cinemas

new period set western movie HEADS OR TAILS from directors Alessio Rigo de Righi and Matteo Zoppis. Our favourite Italian actor Alessandro Borghi stars next to John C. Reilly who takes the role of Buffalo Bill. At the dawn of the 20th century, Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show rolls into Italy, peddling the myth of the American frontier and sparking the imagination of Rosa, a young woman trapped in a stifling marriage to a powerful and violent landowner. When a rodeo between American cowboys and Italian butteri ends in tragedy, Rosa flees with Santino, the daring local rider who bested the Americans. But in a world where justice is sold to the highest bidder, Buffalo Bill and others join the hunt for the bounty on Santino's head. Rosa's dream of freedom quickly collides with the weight of reality-and like in every good Western ballad, fate flips a coin.

Earlier last week, March 27th to be exact, a new historical eight episode series NOVOROSSIYA: POTEMKIN (Новороссия. Потёмкин) started airing over at Russian streamer Kino1TV with Ivan Kolesnikov in the lead role of Prince Grigory Potemkin, and Anna Kovalchuk as the latest actress to portray Empress Catherine II at the small screens.

The series covers the life of Prince Grigory Potemkin - from his appearance at the court of Elizabeth Petrovna in year 1757 to the tragic death in 1791. The action unfolds during a period of rapid Russian prosperity: the acquisition of Novorussian lands, Black Sea Fleet is created, the cities of Kherson, Sevastopol, Ekaterinoslav are under active construction, where the first warship is launched, Catherine the Great's "Greek project" is launched, and Crimea is annexed. All of this occurs thanks to the support and assistance of Prince Grigory Potemkin, against the backdrop of the secret plot of his personal life – his wedding to Empress Catherine II. The plot is based on two main lines: personal - a secret wedding with an Empress, and the state - the construction of the empire in the south. Watch the trailer below:
