Nanami Sakuraba will star in the Japanese version.<\/p>\n<p>Keisuke Tohyama, producer at Tokai TV, commented: &#8220;We are excited about this new partnership with BBC Studios by licensing this bold and creative British format. Remaking <em>Thirteen<\/em> is a significant step for us, as we will be exploring taking local versions of original British drama to Japanese audiences to meet their changing viewing habits and to explore more business opportunities. After the successful remake of <em>Orphan Black &#8211; 7 Genes<\/em>, <em>Thirteen<\/em> will be the second remake from BBC Studios drama for Tokai TV.\u00a0Our direct partnership with BBC Studios gives us one step further and we believe that this thriller will be another great success, giving chills down the spines of many Japanese viewers. We won&#8217;t let you go to bed without watching this show on Saturdays.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Geo Lee, BBC Studios&#8217; senior VP and general manager for Northeast Asia, commented: &#8220;BBC Studios has an impressive range of formats for programs that have been successful in the U.K. and which can also be successful in this region. We aim to artfully combine BBC Studios\u2019 creativity and boldness with the Asia TV industry\u2019s realism and inclusivity. With the support of our partners Tokai TV, I\u2019m pleased to say that this deal for Thirteen marks the stability and maturity of our format licensing in Asia, and particularly in Japan.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BBC Studios and Tokai Television Broadcasting Co. have inked a format deal for the psychological drama miniseries Thirteen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":12971,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[1138,3785,3786],"class_list":["post-12970","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-bbc-studios","tag-thirteen","tag-tokai-television-broadcasting-co","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
