The Last Panthers Set for HBO Nordic

LONDON/MUNICH: The crime series The Last Panthers, which made its world premiere last week during MIPCOM, has been acquired by HBO Nordic.

The 6×1-hour series was commissioned by Sky Atlantic and CANAL+. SundanceTV is on board as the exclusive U.S. broadcaster as well. The show will premiere simultaneously to 21 million Sky customers in the U.K., Ireland, Germany, Austria and Italy on November 12. STUDIOCANAL and Sky Vision, which are both managing worldwide distribution, have also presold the series to 365 Iceland and Hot in Israel.

“We are thrilled to introduce this gripping European crime series with some of the most stellar European talents in front and behind the camera to our Nordic audience at 'The Home of Series,'” said Line Mykland, the COO at HBO Nordic.
 
“The Last Panthers is a very ambitious story, epic in its scope while being contemporary and relevant to the reality of crime in Europe today,” added Katrina Neylon, the executive VP of sales and marketing at STUDIOCANAL.
 
“Producers Haut et Court TV and Warp Films have created a series of rare quality with an international flavor which has landed in a great home at HBO Nordic,” commented Leona Connell, the head of global sales for Sky Vision.
