CEE buyers including FTV Prima, HRT acquire Fox Entertainment Global titles

The Chicken Sisters has been picked up by Pickbox

Buyers from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), including the Czech Republic’s FTV Prima and Croatia’s HRT, have picked up several new titles from Fox Entertainment Global as the US company continues to grow its sales footprint in the region.

HRT has picked up a pair of factual shows – Yellowstone to Yosemite with Kevin Costner and Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints – while FTV Prima has taken a package of films.

Regional SVoD platform Pickbox NOW and channel Pickbox TV have acquired a pan-CEE package of films, as well as scripted drama series The Chicken Sisters (Hallmark), starring Schuyler Fisk, Genevieve Angelson, Lea Thompson and Wendie Malick.

In addition, Poland’s Media4fun has renewed a multi-title package of projects from Fox Entertainment Global.

Tara Gaule, who joined Fox Entertainment Global as sales director for France, CEE, the Middle East and Africa, leads sales in the region.

Fox Entertainment Global president Prentiss Fraser said: “It’s a very important market for our business and we’re thrilled to support these platforms and channels as they continue to grow their audiences locally.”
