BBC & More Lined Up for Theodosia

ZDF Studios and Federation Kids & Family have signed deals for the Egyptology-themed live-action kids’ adventure series Theodosia.

The BBC has signed up for the show, along with Salto, France TV, Quebecor, OSN, Dreamia (Biggs Channel) and NPO. Further sales are currently being negotiated by the sales teams of both partners.

Theodosia recently made its global premiere on HBO Max in the U.S.

Katharina Pietzsch, Director Junior, ZDF Studios, who brokered the deal with the BBC, said: “After our hugely successful collaboration with the BBC colleagues on previous projects such as Wolfblood, Heirs of the Night and The Worst Witch, we are very excited to partner with them on Theodosia as well. We also welcome broadcaster NPO on board and are convinced that the Dutch children will love the series just as much as we do. Other partners will soon join us for this wonderful magical adventure as we will be finalizing further deals at MIPTV in Cannes.”

Monica Levy, head of sales at Federation Kids & Family, commented: “Theodosia charmed buyers from the outset when we presented the first episode during our official launch last MIPCOM. The cinematic quality as well as engaging storylines, setting, magic, Egyptology and much more not only captivate the target demo but also have an allure for the whole family. We are delighted to have finalized these contracts with Salto, France TV, OSN, Quebecor and Dreamia.”
