Under the terms of the agreement, the partnership will see the two companies explore content opportunities dedicated to spotlighting untold stories for Bell network CTV and streamer Crave.

The deal aims to bolster Bell Media’s pipeline of original content, following a recent development pact with Point Grey Pictures and Lionsgate, as well as a licensing and distribution deal with Fox Entertainment Global.

“This pact signifies a shared commitment to fostering Canadian creativity, telling stories from different perspectives, and delivering impactful storytelling to audiences.”
