TV Azteca & KI Partner on Spanish-Language Series

TV Azteca and Keshet International (KI) have inked a deal to co-develop and produce a new original Spanish-language scripted show for broadcast on TV Azteca next year.

The 60-episode series will be developed under the KI banner and co-produced by TV Azteca in-house, with global distribution handled by KI. The development will be led by Joshua Mintz, the deputy president of TV Azteca, and Kelly Wright, VP of distribution and new business, who will oversee the project on behalf of KI.

“Keshet has a reputation for producing scripted series that stand apart from the crowd,” said Mintz. “We are genuinely excited about the content we are going to create together.”

“As we continue our rapid expansion in Latin America, original development is a top priority,” added Wright. “We have a true ‘meeting of minds’ with TV Azteca since it is known for producing bold, daring series that resonate with audiences across not only Mexico but much of the world—something we strive for every time.”
