Eccho Rights Picks Up Krypto Kings

Eccho Rights has acquired the distribution rights to Feelgood’s comedy drama Krypto Kings.

The series sees two nerdy, shy, small-town boys put some of their savings into crypto at 16 years old. Six years later, they decide to check in on their accounts and discover that they are multimillionaires.

Krypto Kings is created by Vegard Thomassen and executive produced by Thomas Giertsen and Lasse Hallberg for Monday Production/Feelgood. Two seasons of eight episodes each have already been commissioned.

The series is set to debut on Norway’s TV 2 Play on February 10.

“This is a hilarious but also touching story of a friendship that is dealt a lucky hand, but then subject to the pressures and stresses that come with unexpected riches,” said Fredrik af Malmborg, CEO of Eccho Rights. “The boom in volatile crypto currencies and its effects is a phenomenon that has been seen around the world, and we’re sure that this story will hit home with international audiences.”
