All3Media International to Take New Kardashians Doc Global

All3Media International has signed on for global distribution of Optomen’s two-part documentary series The Kardashians: A Billion Dollar Dynasty.

The series, which debuted on Channel 4 in the U.K., lifts the lid on the story of how the Kardashians worked to exploit every potential setback and turn these into money-making opportunities. It features contributors such as The Hills reality TV stars Heidi and Spencer Pratt, People Magazine editor Larry Hacket and E! founder Larry Namer, among a raft of other journalists, TV executives and the Kardashians’ managers.

Nick Hornby, CEO at Optomen, commented, “With many people going on the record for the first time, the series is the first to tell the whole story of the Kardashians from Kim’s sex tape all the way to the White House and their particular genius for always staying in the limelight.”

Rachel Job, senior VP of non-scripted at All3Media International, commented, “The Kardashians are one of the most identifiable brands in the world so we are thrilled to welcome this hugely entertaining and insightful behind-the-scenes story to our slate. Optomen’s documentary is told with impressive journalistic rigor, featuring incredible archive footage and new insights from high-profile contributors, offering an illuminating and refreshingly unbiased take on the Kardashian’s journey to unparalleled fame and influence, which we feel certain will have immense global appeal.”
