Video Interview: Lionsgate’s Kevin Beggs

NEW YORK: Kevin Beggs, the chairman of the Lionsgate Television Group, discusses some of the keys to the studio's success in this video interview, available with subtitles in Spanish, Mandarin and French.

When Lionsgate first started producing for television more than a decade ago, the studio used the same approach it had taken with films: identify underserved niches and offer them quality projects. Lionsgate Television quickly built a reputation for working with top talent and giving them room to follow their visions, the results of which have been critically acclaimed hits such as Mad Men, Weeds, Nurse Jackie and, more recently, Orange Is the New Black. Today, the studio, which has won 21 Primetime Emmys, among other awards, is producing for broadcast networks, cable channels and online streaming services.
