Turner LatAm’s Freitas Brothers Arrives on Amazon in Brazil

Turner Latin America has licensed its original series Freitas Brothers (Irmãos Freitas) to Amazon Prime Video in Brazil.

Freitas Brothers debuted yesterday on SPACE in Brazil, and two hours later, it became available on Amazon Prime Video in the same country. Three months after the end of the first season, the series will be available throughout the region on the online platform.

Co-produced with Gullane and VideoFilmes, the series tells the story of love and rivalry of one of Brazil’s greatest sports icons: boxer Acelino “Popó” Freitas.

Tomás Yankelevich, executive VP and general entertainment chief content officer for Turner Latin America, said: “As was the case of Monzón in Argentina, which was a huge success when it aired on SPACE, we are certain that Brazilian audiences will embrace the story of their own popular icon from the very first episode. Thanks to the talent of Walter Salles and the great teamwork of Gullane and VideoFilmes, every single episode of Freitas Brothers is a must-see.”
