Fremantle​ and the podcast company ​Acast​ have entered into a partnership to further propel local development and production of premium audio-on-demand content in Australia.

Fremantle is kicking off MIPCOM with an exclusive deal with the Australian broadcaster SBS for a rich mix of content, including a collection of new prime-time dramas.

Baghdad Central, a gritty new crime thriller created by BAFTA award-winning writer Stephen Butchard, and La Jauría, a Spanish-language psychological thriller, are among the offerings that Fremantle is bringing to MIPTV.

PREMIUM: Jens Richter, the CEO of International at Fremantle, tells World Screen Newsflash how he and his teams have been focusing on unique stories featuring A-list talent in front of and behind the camera, relying on presales and co-productions to bring these shows to the screen.

Amazon Prime Video is set to launch the newly remastered Baywatch series in the U.S., Australia and Canada.

Fremantle has elevated Angela Neillis to senior VP of non-scripted content and Rebecca Dundon to VP of scripted content.

Fremantle has tapped Jennifer Collins, most recently head of nonfiction at Screentime and formerly ABC’s head of entertainment, to serve as director of content within the Australian business.

Fremantle's wide portfolio of new content at MIPCOM includes the dramas Beecham House and Taken Down, the format The Greatest Dancer and the adventure series Expedition with Steve Backshall.

Documentaries, dramas, lifestyle shows and entertainment programs are stacked across Fremantle’s MIPCOM lineup.

Fremantle has appointed Andrea Scrosati, currently executive VP of programming at Sky Italia, as group chief operating officer.
