Tubi & Endemol Shine Pact for MasterChef & LEGO Masters

Endemol Shine has agreed to license additional series to FOX Entertainment’s ad-supported streaming service Tubi in the U.S.

The agreement will see MasterChef and LEGO Masters available for distribution on the AVOD platform. FOX is the home for the U.S. formats of these shows and the deal will see Tubi become the only platform in America where international versions such as MasterChef Australia, MasterChef Mexico, MasterChef Canada and the U.K. and Australian versions of LEGO Masters will be available.

MasterChef Australia and MasterChef Canada are now live on Tubi, with additional international formats launching in the fall and beyond.

Matt Creasey, executive VP of sales and acquisitions at Endemol Shine International, said: “We are incredibly proud to strike this unprecedented deal which will see global versions of two popular entertainment series available for the first time in the U.S. outside of FOX networks.”

“Tubi viewers in the U.S. will soon enjoy instant access to the universally addictive MasterChef and LEGO Masters formats from around the world at absolutely no cost,” said Adam Lewinson, chief content officer of Tubi. “We are excited to be collaborating with Endemol Shine on these two marquee global properties.”
