Fake on Paramount+ breaks subscription and streaming records – Paramount+ Australian Original Series. Exclusively Streaming Now On Paramount+.
Paramount+ today announced that its Australian original series, Fake, has fast become a water cooler hit and is officially the biggest first week launch of a local drama since Paramount+ arrived in Australia.
The eight-part series, inspired by journalist Stephanie Wood’s memoir of the same name, is available to stream now and has sent a surge of new subscribers to Paramount+.
In the hands of two of the country’s finest, Gold Logie award-winning actress Asher Keddie (The Lost Flowers Of Alice Heart, Nine Perfect Strangers, Offspring) and Australian Film Institute award-winning actor David Wenham (Elvis, Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers & Return Of The King), Fake is a visceral psychological thriller that resonates with anyone who has ever been lied to.

“We are absolutely delighted by the number of viewers that have already binged all eight episodes of Fake on Paramount+.
“This powerful new drama series has been brought to life by the outstanding performances from Asher Keddie and David Wenham, and the creative vision of Kindling Pictures has been embraced wholeheartedly by new and existing subscribers alike. It’s a thrilling watch and we couldn’t be prouder.”
