Warner Bros. Television Group has signed an overall deal with Emmy Award winner Bryan Cranston and his Moonshot Entertainment production company.

The multiyear pact for Cranston’s producing services is exclusive for Warner Bros.

Under terms of the pact, Cranston and his Moonshot Entertainment producing partner James Degus will develop original series ideas for on-demand/streaming services, premium/pay and basic cable channels, the broadcast networks and digital platforms.

Moonshot’s series will be produced in association with either Warner Bros. Television, Warner Horizon Scripted Television, Warner Bros. Animation or Blue Ribbon Content, the Television Group’s digital division, depending on the platform. Beyond the U.S., Warner Bros. International Television Distribution will distribute the series.

Cranston said: “I launched the company six years ago with an insatiable curiosity to discover unique, character-based storytelling, which has been a key to Moonshot’s success. My producing partner, James Degus, and I are excited to continue the journey at Warner Bros., where we will expand on an eclectic slate of ideas that aim to connect with the heart and mind.”

Moonshot has produced Sneaky Pete, which ran for three seasons on Amazon Prime Video. Cranston co-created the series, played a recurring role, directed an episode and served as executive producer with Degus.

Moonshot also produced the HBO original TV movie All the Way, in which Cranston starred as President Lyndon B. Johnson, a role he previously played in the Broadway production of the same name, winning a Tony Award for best leading actor in a play.

Cranston and Degus are executive producers on the upcoming Showtime limited drama series Your Honor, in which Cranston stars.
