Planeta Junior to Rep Find Me in Paris L&M in Italy

Federation Kids & Family has entered a licensing partnership in Italy with Planeta Junior for the live-action tween series Find Me in Paris.

Planeta Junior is taking on the licensing rights for the show, which centers on a time-traveling ballerina from Russia. A book deal has already been secured with publisher Mondadori for a launch next year. Find Me in Paris is produced by Federation’s Cottonwood Media with ZDF, ZDF Enterprises and B-FILMS.

Simone Fenu of Planeta Junior stated: “We are thrilled to have a brand of such high standard to work with. The high production budget, on-location filming in Paris and the Opera Garnier, and the world-class choreography, have made this a compelling brand across all categories. We are really proud to work side-by-side with a top entertainment company like Cottonwood.”

David Michel, the managing director of Federation Kids & Family, added: “With major licensing partners in France and Germany already working on a strong merchandise program ranging from books and magazines to bedding, fashion, toys and stationary, we have no doubt Find Me in Paris will become a hot and fashionable property in Italy. We are delighted to benefit from Planeta Junior’s licensing experience and we’re fully committed to working with the best licensees in the Italian market to build Find Me in Paris into a long-term franchise.”
