When love, lies, and murder collide — The Alibi takes the stage as this year’s most anticipated Filipino thriller series. Headlined by Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino, the show dares to ask: How far would you go to hide your darkest secret? Produced by ABS-CBN’s Dreamscape Entertainment and directed by Onat Diaz, Jojo Saguin, and FM Reyes, this Prime Video original marks a chilling return for one of the country’s most compelling on-screen pairs.

Here are ten reasons why you shouldn’t miss “The Alibi.”

1. The Reunion of Kim Chiu and Paulo Avelino After “Linlang”

After setting the screen ablaze with their chemistry in Linlang, Kim and Paulo return to Prime Video with a new kind of intensity. Their dynamic evolves from marital betrayal to a thrilling psychological game — proof that their pairing only gets more electrifying with every project.

2. A Seductive Murder-Mystery with Emotional Depth

At its heart, The Alibi isn’t just about crime — it’s about survival, deceit, and desire. The story unravels as Stella (Kim Chiu), an escort struggling to support her broken family, becomes entangled with Vincent (Paulo Avelino), a media heir accused of murder. Their fates intertwine in ways that blur the line between love and manipulation.

3. A Bold New Role for Kim Chiu

Kim Chiu continues to reinvent herself with every role, and Stella is one of her most daring yet. Vulnerable yet calculating, fragile yet fearless — Kim delivers a performance that pushes her acting range to new heights. Expect scenes that are both emotionally raw and hauntingly real.

4. Paulo Avelino’s Masterclass in Mystery

Paulo Avelino thrives in complex, morally gray characters — and Vincent is exactly that. Torn between guilt, desire, and deception, he gives life to a man both sympathetic and suspicious. His portrayal promises a gripping study of how power, privilege, and paranoia collide.

5. A Star-Studded Ensemble of Filipino Legends and Rising Stars

From award-winning veterans like John Arcilla, Zsa Zsa Padilla, and Irma Adlawan, to promising young stars like Sofia Andres and Angelina Cruz — The Alibi boasts an ensemble that elevates every scene. Each character has a secret, each motive another piece in the puzzle.

6. The Cinematic Vision of Dreamscape Entertainment

Known for its prestige productions (The Broken Marriage Vow, FPJ’s Batang Quiapo, Linlang), Dreamscape once again delivers a visually striking, narratively rich series. Every frame of The Alibi feels like a film — atmospheric, tense, and dripping with noir sophistication.

7. Direction by Three of ABS-CBN’s Finest Filmmakers

With Onat Diaz, Jojo Saguin, and FM Reyes at the helm, The Alibi promises a perfect blend of pace and polish. Their combined creative vision ensures that the series remains unpredictable, emotionally grounded, and visually gripping from start to finish.

8. A Thriller That Doubles as a Social Commentary

Beyond its mystery, The Alibi explores the dark underbelly of power and media manipulation. It sheds light on how influence shapes truth — and how the line between guilt and innocence can easily be blurred in a world driven by perception.

9. Global Streaming Reach via Prime Video

With The Alibi premiering in over 240 countries and territories, Filipino storytelling takes another confident leap onto the international stage. It’s a chance for global audiences to experience the richness of Philippine suspense dramas — one episode at a time.

10. Secrets, Seduction, and the Price of a Lie

Every episode peels back a layer of deceit. What begins as a desperate cover-up transforms into a psychological maze where no one is truly innocent. For viewers who love twists, tension, and morally complex love stories, The Alibi is your next obsession.

The Verdict

The Alibi isn’t just another crime drama — it’s a dark romance woven into a murder mystery that dares to ask how far people will go to protect what they love… or to hide what they’ve done.

Stream “The Alibi” exclusively on Prime Video starting November 7, with new episodes released weekly in the Philippines and in over 240 countries and territories.
