Temple Street Makes First Third-Party Acquisition

TORONTO: Temple Street Distribution, the newly launched sales arm of Temple Street Productions, has added to its catalogue the animated show Ollie! The Boy Who Became What He Ate, marking the company's first third-party acquisition.

Temple Street will serve as the exclusive global distributor of Ollie! The Boy Who Became What He Ate. The company will represent all forms of media, including merchandising and licensing opportunities. The book-based series is about a young picky eater who imagines himself transforming into food, which gives him wacky superpowers. It is being developed and produced by Radical Sheep Productions, Mickey Rogers Media and Kids' CBC.

"Temple Street is thrilled to work with premium producers Radical Sheep and Mickey Rogers on our first third-party acquisition and series distribution deal," said Jon Rutherford, the president of distribution at Temple Street. "Ollie! is a very engaging story and we look forward to bringing the series to platforms across the globe."

"Partnering with Temple Street Distribution is an excellent fit for this project and hopefully the first of many collaborations together," added John Leitch, the principal of Radical Sheep Productions. "Temple Street alongside Radical Sheep, Mickey Rogers Media and Kids' CBC is the perfect team of experts to bring this creative story to life and get it in front of the right audience."
