Richard Plepler’s Eden Inks Five-Year Pact with Apple TV+

Apple TV+ has signed Richard Plepler’s newly launched Eden Productions to an exclusive deal, covering original series, feature films and documentaries.

Plepler, former chairman and CEO of HBO, formed the New York-based Eden as a boutique production company focused on a few select programs. Now tied up with Apple TV+, Plepler said, “I’m excited to work with Zack, Jamie and the standout team at Apple who have been deeply supportive of my vision for Eden from day one. The shows that Zack and Jamie produced, The Crown and Breaking Bad, are among those I most admired. Apple is one of the most creative companies in the world and the perfect home for my new production company and next chapter.”
