Mediaset Distribution announced the sale of its scripted format "Il Mammo" (translated as "Mr. Mom") to Poland, where the production company Brand Trust Partners has already completed filming two episodes of the local adaptation, titled "Pan Mama". Produced by Telewizja Polska, with Brand Trust Partners as the executive producer, "Pan Mama" brings a fresh and culturally resonant take on the Italian original, which has captured the hearts of audiences worldwide.

Originally produced in Italy by RTI S.p.A., "Il Mammo" is a series that follows the story of Silvano, a stay-at-home widower navigating the challenges of managing the household and raising his three children alone. The show combines touching family dynamics, thanks to its relatable humour and the authenticity of Silvano’s struggles, from dealing with teenage angst to managing daily chaos in the kitchen.

In the Polish adaptation, the central role of Sylwester, the devoted and occasionally overwhelmed stay-at-home dad, is portrayed by Paweł Domagała. His children are played by Ania Stolarska, Olga Wypych, and Mirosław Tamchuk, whose performances add youthful charm and emotional depth to the series. Other key roles include Karolina Bacia, Piotr Głowacki, and Mirosław Zbrojewicz, with guest star actor Grażyna Szapołowska and perfect recognizable journalist in Poland - Beata Tadla contributing to a stellar cast that brings the vibrant family dynamic to life.

The Polish adaptation brings together a highly skilled creative team, with Jan Foryś as the director, Mikołaj Łebkowski as the cinematographer, and Paweł Dąbrowski handling the set design. The screenplay is a collaborative effort by Kuba Wecsile, Filip Kasperaszek, and Mariusz Pitura, ensuring a dynamic and engaging vision for the project.
 

The production stays true to the heartwarming and comedic essence of the original "Il Mammo", while adapting it to reflect Polish culture and the reality of 20-ties of 21 century. The sale of "Il Mammo" to Poland underscores the universal appeal of this family-centered comedy, which resonates with audiences for its humor, relatability, and heartfelt storytelling. The series' success is a testament to its ability to cross cultural boundaries and connect with viewers around the world.

Mediaset Distribution looks forward to the premiere of "Pan Mama" and celebrating the continued global journey of Il Mammo. Claudia Marra Sales Manager at Mediaset Distribution is attending Content Americas to present the show among other titles of the calog.
