Wildlife channel “Terra Mater WILD” expands into English-speaking FAST-markets

Following its strong performance in German-speaking territories, the nature and wildlife FAST channel from Autentic and Terra Mater Studios is now available in English on Samsung TV Plus in the UK, with further rollouts confirmed. Also, Spanish-language version of “Terra Mater WILD” is already in preparation for a launch later this year.

Fascinating blue-chip wildlife documentaries and breathtaking nature films are at the heart of “Terra Mater WILD”. The channel offers viewers a premium selection of award-winning titles from Terra Mater Studios, one of the world's leading producers of wildlife and natural history content, alongside standout third-party productions curated by Autentic.

This expansion further strengthens the partnership between Autentic and Terra Mater Studios, which also encompasses Autentic’s exclusive distribution of Terra Mater Studios’ portfolio. To support the continued growth of Autentic’s international FAST and AVOD business, Autentic will also be present at Sunny Side of the Doc in La Rochelle this month, looking to acquire back catalogues of high-quality factual content for AVOD and FAST.

Autentic operates a total of six FAST channel brands, offering a diverse range of high-quality factual content. These include the English-language channels “Adventure Earth”, “Autentic Travel”, and “Autentic History”, as well as the German-language channels “Curiosity Now” and “SPIEGEL TV Konflikte”.

Patrick Hörl, Managing Director & Founder of Autentic highlighted the channel's storytelling: ‘We’re excited to launch the English-language version of “Terra Mater WILD”, making the channel’s stunning wildlife storytelling accessible to an even broader global audience. It’s a fantastic next step in our successful collaboration with Terra Mater Studios and a tribute to the power and beauty of nature content," commented.

FInally, Walter Köhler, CEO & Founder of Terra Mater Studios celebrated the launch: "The success of “Terra Mater WILD” in German-speaking territories has confirmed what we've always believed—there is a strong and growing global appetite for high-quality, visually stunning, and editorially rich wildlife storytelling on FAST platforms. With the English-language rollout, we’re making it easier than ever for viewers to discover and enjoy our award-winning documentaries, anytime, anywhere, and entirely free. This is a major step forward in our mission to bring the beauty and urgency of the natural world to living rooms everywhere," stated.
