The crime drama Mr. Mercedes<\/em>,\u00a0part of\u00a0Sonar Entertainment’s MIPCOM slate, follows a demented killer as he taunts a retired police detective with a series of lurid letters and emails.<\/p>\n

The show is based on the best-selling novel by Stephen King and adapted for television by David E. Kelley. \u201cMr. Mercedes<\/em> premiered this summer in the U.S. on AT&T Audience Network to critical acclaim, and we\u2019re excited to take it to audiences around the world,\u201d says David Ellender, Sonar Entertainment\u2019s president of global distribution and co-productions. The Son<\/em>, which stars Pierce Brosnan, has already sold into a slew of territories, and there is a second season in production. The 10×1-hour series tells the saga of a bloody battle for power, following the rise of one ambitious family that is as resilient and dangerous as the land they claim. Sonar is also presenting the WWII drama Das Boot<\/em>, which expands on the story from the novel and movie.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith an eye for compelling source material and great production partners, we\u2019ve been able to pinpoint what\u2019s missing from today\u2019s TV marketplace and fill the gaps with great content,\u201d says Ellender. \u201cThese programs, and all of the series in Sonar\u2019s upcoming slate, draw audiences because of their premium production values and global storytelling.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
