Inter Medya takes on Acun formats

Exathlon has sold well in Latin America

MIPCOM: Turkish distributor Inter Medya has partnered with prolific local producer Acun Medya to distribute three of its shows on the international market.

Inter will handle the rights to Exathlon, Power of Love and My Style Rocks as part of the deal. Acun Medya said the move was part of its plans to target Latin America as an area for expansion.

Exathlon was Acun’s first production in the Americas and is a competitive reality show where contestants are selected among Olympic athletes, football players, celebrities and everyday people with powerful competitive abilities.

The format has already been produced for networks in the US (Telemundo), Mexico (Azteca TV), Colombia (RCN), Brazil (Band) and Romania (Channel D).

The Power of Love, meanwhile, is produced by Acun for Greek commercial broadcaster Skai as an adaptation of a reality dating format from Turkey’s Global Agency. Skai is also the home of fashion reality series My Style Rocks.
