AFM Spotlight: Starz

SANTA MONICA: Bruce Campbell reprises his role as a monster hunter in Ash vs Evil Dead, part of the Starz catalogue.

The new series picks up three decades after the end of the last film from the Evil Dead franchise. “More than 100 countries and territories debuted Ash vs Evil Dead worldwide on October 31—a remarkable industry accomplishment,” says Mara Winokur, the senior VP of digital at Starz.

Other highlights include Flesh and Bone, a limited-run ballet drama, and The Girlfriend Experience, about a law student who gets caught up in the world of transactional relationships.

“All three Starz original series are truly premium shows with compelling, entertaining story lines, incredibly talented stars and superb production quality,” says Gene George, Starz’s executive VP of worldwide distribution.
