ZDF Enterprises Boards New Action Thriller

ZDF Enterprises has acquired Chris and Jason Thornton’s The Incorruptibles, teaming with Rosa Entertainment to develop the script and package the project.

Rosa Entertainment’s Sidney Sherman will executive produce alongside Robert Franke, VP of ZDFE.drama at ZDF Enterprises, and the Thornton brothers. The hour-long English-language drama is a “high concept, violent action-thriller with satirical black comedy elements.” ZDF Enterprises will represent the show globally.

“We are extremely excited to be working with ZDF Enterprises on developing such a high-octane, envelope-pushing show and bringing it to not only viewers in the states but a global audience,” said the Thornton brothers. “The incredible support we’ve seen for our creative vision from ZDF Enterprises has been energizing and inspiring to say the least, and we can’t wait to deliver it to the masses.”

Franke noted, “We are very proud of the collaboration with Sidney and the Thorntons. The Incorruptibles is an important cornerstone of our new collaboration strategy with U.S. producers. It will help ZDF Enterprises to further diversify its catalog of high-quality drama series by adding a new program color in the much-underserved segment of high-concept action series.”
