MIPCOM Spotlight: A+E Media Group

The Sopranos star Michael Imperioli serves as executive producer on Five Families, on offer from A+E Media Group, following the true story of the rise and fall of the American Mafia in New York during its golden age.

The Mega-Brands that Built the World and Secrets of Penthouse are also featured, part of the That Built and Secrets Of franchises, respectively.

While Mega-Brands tells the origin stories behind some of the world’s biggest brands, including Procter & Gamble, Schick, Gillette and more, the four-part Penthouse “tells a compelling true story that gives a voice to the unheard men and women victims of a powerful institution while unearthing brand-new truths,” says Liz Soriano, senior VP and head of international programming.

“We are excited for the upcoming market and the slate we’re bringing forward this year,” comments Soriano.
