Banijay announced four new adaptations of reality hit “The Bridge” for Prime Video in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland, and also the return of competition format “Star Academy” to France after nine years.
The reality format, originally created by Banijay Iberia label Zeppelin, will return to various broadcasters, including Channel 4, following various successful runs on HBO Max in the US and the UK.
In this beginning, participants of "Canta Comigo", "The Bridge" and "Queen Stars" will be managed. ESB identified an opportunity, which began in France and Spain, when the producer began to manage the talents of their shows in both countries.
"The Bridge Brasil" is a Max Originals production produced by WarnerMedia Latin America in partnership with Endemol Shine Brasil. The program will be released exclusively on HBO Max.
The US streamer obtained rights to the show after it was acquired in its entirety by Australian broadcaster SBS TV. The show has been sold around the world and remade on five different occasions.
