It will see the label take on production of Fremantle\u2019s entire entertainment catalog in Australia, including <em>Australia\u2019s Got Talent<\/em>, <em>Australian Idol<\/em> and <em>Farmer Wants a Wife<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Eureka Productions is led by co-CEOs Chris Culvenor and Paul Franklin. Fremantle Australia\u2019s interim CEO, Greg Woods, will take on the CEO role permanently. He will lead the other side of the Australian business, which will focus on the development and production of drama, documentaries and factual-skewing programs. Under Woods\u2019 leadership, Fremantle Australia will continue production of the factual-skewing formats <em>Grand Designs<\/em> and <em>Restoration Australia<\/em> while continuing to build its documentaries business and place a greater emphasis on global drama production in Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Mullin, group CEO of Fremantle, said: \u201cGreg has been a key part of the Fremantle Australia leadership team for 13 years. This is a natural progression at an exciting time for the business. I have known and worked with Chris and Paul for many years and have no doubt that our entertainment catalog in Australia will continue to thrive in their hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Woods added: \u201cI am incredibly excited to be taking up the reigns at Fremantle and looking forward to the opportunities that lie ahead. I am so very proud to be working with the most talented and passionate people who will shape the irresistible content of the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Culvenor and Franklin commented: \u201cWe couldn\u2019t be more thrilled to have Eureka representing and producing Fremantle\u2019s amazing unscripted catalog, which includes some of the biggest entertainment, reality and game shows in the world. All at Eureka are truly excited to be bringing these formats to life in Australia.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fremantle is set to bring the development and production of all entertainment, reality and game-show formats in Australia under the unscripted producer Eureka Productions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":8731,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[1472,2431],"class_list":["post-8730","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-eureka-productions","tag-fremantle-group","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Eureka to Lead Fremantle\u2019s Format Business in Australia - TVFORMATS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/eureka-to-lead-fremantles-format-business-in-australia\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Eureka to Lead Fremantle\u2019s Format Business in Australia - TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Fremantle is set to bring the development and production of all entertainment, reality and game-show formats in Australia under the unscripted producer Eureka Productions.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/eureka-to-lead-fremantles-format-business-in-australia\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-02-24T16:01:14+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-02-24T16:53:04+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2017\/07\/fremantle-eureka-0222.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"550\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"320\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/eureka-to-lead-fremantles-format-business-in-australia\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/eureka-to-lead-fremantles-format-business-in-australia\/\",\"name\":\"Eureka to Lead Fremantle\u2019s Format Business in Australia - TVFORMATS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-02-24T16:01:14+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-02-24T16:53:04+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/eureka-to-lead-fremantles-format-business-in-australia\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/eureka-to-lead-fremantles-format-business-in-australia\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/eureka-to-lead-fremantles-format-business-in-australia\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Eureka to Lead Fremantle\u2019s Format Business in Australia\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\",\"name\":\"TVFORMATS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
