MarVista & TelevisaUnivision Strike Production Deal for ViX+

FOX Entertainment’s MarVista Entertainment and TelevisaUnivision have entered into a development and production deal for Spanish-language movies that will launch on the ViX+ SVOD platform.

Per the agreement, MarVista will produce ten original Spanish-language films across family, comedy, romance and holiday genres that will stream exclusively on ViX+, the subscription-based tier of the Spanish-language streaming service Vix. ViX+ is slated to launch in the second half of this year.

TelevisaUnivision will hold worldwide streaming distribution rights for all ten films produced under the deal, and MarVista will oversee global distribution outside of streaming and second windows for all platforms.

Fernando Szew, CEO at MarVista Entertainment, said: “It is an incredible honor to be a founding creative production partner of TelevisaUnivision on the launch of ViX+. MarVista and FOX Entertainment take great pride in being leaders in delivering diverse stories and premium content across multiple genres for all viewers. We’re looking forward to introducing these initial ten films to what undoubtedly will be a fast-growing and leading streamer within the Spanish-speaking market.”
