MIPTV Spotlight: Dynamic Television

CANNES: Laurence Fishburne stars as Nelson Mandela in the six-hour event series Madiba, which Dynamic Television is bringing to MIPTV.

“The scale and scope of Madiba will make this a true event series that will mesmerize audiences around the world,” says Dan March, managing partner at Dynamic. “It’s an important story and one we’re honored to partner on.” On the genre side, the company is presenting the 13-episode series Wynonna Earp, a supernatural thriller for Syfy based on a graphic novel. Also for Syfy, the 13×1-hour Van Helsing is in production from the same producers as Fargo and Hell on Wheels. “Van Helsing is a total reimagining of a timeless brand, and our series takes place in a world dominated and controlled by vampires,” explains March.

“We believe in developing great characters in exciting and dramatic settings, and we want our name on a show to mean quality,” March says.
