MIPTV Spotlight: Sky Vision

CANNES: Levison Wood undertakes a new journey in Walking the Americas, the third installment in the series that Sky Vision is presenting at MIPTV.

“Levison Wood’s Walking… franchise is unique in its blend of exciting adventure and authentic discovery,” says Jane Millichip, the managing director of Sky Vision. Kudos (Broadchurch) and Rowan Joffe (28 Weeks Later, The American) are behind the revenge thriller Tin Star, set in the Rocky Mountains. Tim Roth (The Hateful Eight) and Christina Hendricks (Mad Men) star in the ten-part series.

Meanwhile, Eric McCormack (Will & Grace, Perception) leads the action in the sci-fi series Travelers, which has been picked up for a second season by Showcase in Canada and Netflix. “Travelers is an intelligent and original concept with both high production values and entertainment at its heart,” says Millichip. “Travelers has all the hallmarks of a long-running franchise with global appeal.”
