The Co-Production Company, founded by former DreamWorks Senior VP Doug Schwalbe, will seek to secure financing and global distribution outside of Israel as well.<\/p>\n<p>Schwalbe will serve as the executive producer of <em>Thalath<\/em>, which focuses on three teen best friends who grew up together in a mixed neighborhood in Jaffa, where Jews, Arabs and refugees from Africa live side by side. The three girls start a multilingual band called Thalath, whose original music will be a feature of the series.<\/p>\n<p>Orly Atlas-Katz, CEO of Ananey Studios and executive VP of ViacomCBS Israel; Osnat Saraga, senior VP of development and productions; and Jerry Diaz, a former Corus and WildBrain sales executive, will join Schwalbe as executive producers. Diaz has also joined The Co-Production Company team as partner of distribution for this project and will lead the effort to secure program sales outside of Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Creators Michal Cooper Keren and Lior Yaron have previously collaborated on successful teen shows in Israel such as <em>Spyders<\/em> for Nickelodeon International, <em>Spell Keepers<\/em> (original title: <em>Kadabra<\/em>, which won the Israeli Academy Award for Best Teen Show of 2017), <em>North Star<\/em> (adapted into the American show <em>The Lodge<\/em>) and <em>Summer Days<\/em> (aired in dubbed versions on dozens of Disney channels in Western Europe and South America). Cooper Keren will also serve as the showrunner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Thalath<\/em> is truly breakthrough television in so many ways,\u201d said Schwalbe. \u201cThe concept could not be more timely\u2014or courageous\u2014given the ongoing conflict in Israel and the global refugee crisis. On top of that, the series is leading the worldwide trend toward programming content in its original language and is one of the first shows for teens to do so. We are also thrilled to be collaborating with the team from Ananey and series creators Lior Yaron and Michal Cooper Keren. Their proven track records put them at the forefront of the wave of new Israeli creators making an exciting impact on the world television marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Atlas-Katz said, \u201cWe are excited to collaborate on <em>Thalath<\/em>, our newest commission from Israel&#8217;s leading cable network Hot, with the team from The Co-Production Company. Once in a while we get to work on a project that is not just entertaining but also captivating, moving and has the potential to inspire viewers to strive for better and stronger relationships. <em>Thalath<\/em> is exactly that, and we can&#8217;t wait to reveal it to viewers everywhere.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Co-Production Company and Israel-based Ananey Studios have teamed up to co-produce the live-action teen series Thalath.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":21183,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[6122,5962,6123],"class_list":["post-21182","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-ananey-studios","tag-doug-schwalbe","tag-the-co-production-company","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
