Mediawan, Pepe Baston’s Elefantec Global and Eva Longoria’s UnbeliEVAble Entertainment are co-producing an adaptation of Call My Agent for all Spanish-language American territories.

Call My Agent originally aired on France Télévisions for four seasons with record audiences. It was then acquired by Netflix. The original series was produced by Mon Voisin Productions and Mother Production and has already been adapted internationally, most recently in Italy by Palomar.

Pierre-Antoine Capton, CEO of Mediawan, said: “Joining forces with Eva Longoria and Pepe Baston to take Call My Agent to Latin America is a unique opportunity. Their talent and know-how combined with their international renown guarantee an innovative and premium adaptation of this series, a real funny and moving gem that the French creators were able to bring to life and which has since been traveling to audiences worldwide.”

Baston, CEO of Elefantec Global, added: “We are excited to bring Call My Agent to the Spanish-speaking American market and thrilled to be doing so with the creators at Mediawan and UnbeliEVAble entertainment. Made with Latin flavor for a global audience, we are sure this iteration will find success and viewers worldwide. ”

Longoria, CEO and founder of UnbeliEVAble Entertainment, said: “Like so many people around the globe, I’ve been a huge fan of the original series since it first premiered. I’m so excited to partner with Mediawan and Elefantec Global to bring one of the greatest properties that gives a witty and satirical look behind the curtain of the entertainment industry for the Spanish-speaking American market.”
