CANNES: Iain Glen stars in the Content Television crime drama Jack Taylor, based on novels by Ken Bruen.

Toby Jones leads the cast of another Content Television drama, The Secret Agent, inspired by a Joseph Conrad novel. “Our fiction lineup is rich in prime-time drama and packed with award-winning talent, which will have broad appeal across the globe,” says Jonathan Ford, the company’s executive VP of sales and distribution.

“We also have a formidable blend of sophisticated, nonfiction content, which showcases a fascinating array of subjects, from politics to wildlife, showbiz to real crime,” says Ford. Among the factual titles being showcased is Keeping Up with the Kruger, set at South Africa’s Kruger National Park.
