Liar Notches Up Deals

A number of deals have been signed by all3media international for the thriller Liar from Two Brothers Pictures.

The six-part drama has now been picked up by Germany’s SquareOne Entertainment, in a deal including rights for the German-speaking market, as well as by SVT in Sweden. Further broadcasters acquiring the series include 365 Media (Iceland), DBS Satellite (Israel) and TV3 (Ireland), alongside a pan-regional deal with BBC Global covering Africa, Benelux and the Middle East.

This new round of sales follows its ratings-winning debut on ITV in the U.K. last month.

Louise Pedersen, CEO at all3media international, commented, “We’re very pleased to see this fantastic Two Brothers Pictures’ drama heading to brand-new territories. Liar achieved incredible ratings and wide critical acclaim on its launch in the U.K., gripping audiences with its intriguing storyline and compelling performances. This success will only serve to further strengthen the appeal of the show with our global clients, and we’re looking forward to finalizing more deals in Cannes.”
