The agreement serves as the first to be negotiated between the two conglomerates. The ten-part series, originally produced by HBO Max for All3media will handle the series' worldwide distribution.
The distributor has secured a range of pre-sales for The Forge’s upcoming political thriller, signing deals in key territories. Starring Hugh Laurie and Helen McCrory, the show is premiering as part of Mipcom’s online screenings programme.
The global deals will provide access to the television adaptations of James Herriot’s bestselling novels across regions across Americas, Europe, and Asia.
The series, commissioned by ITV's Head of Drama, Poly Hill, has sold to more than 220 territories worldwide. Huw Kennair-Jones will oversee the production.
The collaboration will see All3media International supporting the development of a selection of new projects – scripted and non-scripted – from Two Rivers Media, and handling rights to those titles in the global market.
