Amazon MGM Studios & Tastemade Ink Multiyear First-Look Deal

Amazon MGM Studios and Tastemade have signed a multiyear first-look deal to produce 15 original lifestyle programs for Prime Video and Amazon Freevee.

The first series on the roster is Dish It Out, hosted by TV personality, chef and social media content creator Matilda “Tilly” Ramsay, daughter of chef and restaurateur Gordon Ramsay. In each episode, Tilly will receive a mystery box of goods from chefs and home cooks around the world, piecing together the items to create a globally inspired dish.

Dish It Out has received a 32-episode order, and production will begin in 2024 in Tastemade’s London studios.

All content from the deal will be produced by Tastemade Studios, helmed by Taye Shuayb, global head of studios and content development. Content will range from cooking competitions to travel shows and will be hosted by notable talent.
