AFM Spotlight: Red Arrow International

SANTA MONICA: A mini-series and two crime series are among the highlights of the current Red Arrow International slate.

Inspired by William Boyd’s bestselling book, Restless is an event thriller that portrays the British Secret Service operations in America during the Second World War. The mini-series is scheduled to air on the Sundance Channel in the U.S. later this year. Jo is an hour-long crime series created by the Emmy Award winner René Balcer (Law & Order) and starring Jean Reno. “Projects like Jo and Restless show our strength in gap financing and co-production and we will continue to further increase our work in this field,” says Jens Richter, Red Arrow International’s managing director.

Another crime series on the slate is Bosch, set to premiere next year. “With over 45 million books sold worldwide, Michael Connelly’s Harry Bosch franchise has an enormous international fan base and makes for perfect event TV,” notes Richter. Eric Overmyer, a producer on The Wire and Treme, serves as showrunner.
