NETFLIX'S 'PHYSICAL: 100' EVOLVES INTO 'PHYSICAL: ASIA,' WELCOMING BOXING LEGEND MANNY PACQUIAO

Physical: Asia Debuts in Q4 of 2025

The hit survival reality competition show Physical: 100, which dominated Netflix's Global Top 10 TV Series (Non-English) rankings for two years in a row, is back with a monumental twist. Now titled Physical: Asia and premiering in the fourth quarter of this year, the series scales up its quest for the ultimate physique beyond individual matchups - unleashing a full-blown national showdown where pride, survival, and teamwork collide.

From "100" to "Asia" In previous seasons, 100 elite competitors fought to outlast each other in a grueling individual tournament. This time, Physical: Asia transforms the battleground into a high-stakes team competition featuring top-tier athletes representing their respective countries. If a single teammate falls, the entire squad is eliminated - raising the stakes and drama to unprecedented heights.

A legendary contender enters the ring In a first for the franchise, living boxing legend Manny Pacquiao joins Physical: Asia as the Philippine representative. Pacquiao, revered worldwide as the only boxer in history to acquire titles in eight weight divisions, brings his formidable talent and indomitable spirit to this team-based clash of champions. His participation signals the show's expanded ambition: a fierce face-off among Asia's finest, with national pride on the line.

Bigger stage, higher stakes Season after season, Physical: 100 has captivated viewers around the globe, blazing a trail as Netflix's first Korean unscripted series to clinch the top spot on the Global Top 10 (Non-English) list. With the newly minted Physical: Asia, the spectacle grows even bigger. Competitors - regardless of age, gender, or weight class - will unite under their national flags for the toughest, most pulse-pounding missions yet.

Catch up on the first two seasons of Physical: 100, now streaming on Netflix. Stay tuned for more updates on Physical: Asia - the ultimate test of teamwork, endurance, and raw physical power.

Physical: Asia

Premiere Date: Q4 2025

Synopsis: Physical: 100, which dominated Netflix's Global Top 10 TV Series (Non-English) for two consecutive years, returns on a grander scale as Physical: Asia. This season, the arena expands beyond individuals to a full-blown national competition. While the previous season featured 100 contestants vying solo for the ultimate physique, Physical: Asia raises the stakes with top-tier athletes representing their respective countries - battling not just for personal glory, but also for national pride. If one team member fails, the entire team goes down, making every moment a pulse-pounding fight for survival. Who will claim the title of the strongest nation with the strongest physique when the dust settles?

Production Company: TEO
