The carriage deal, which begins on November 1, will see MyTime Movie Network’s content launch on Roku, LG and TCL and across three YouTube channels in the US and Latin America. Further territories are expected to be added.

MyTime’s content consists of 375 hours of scripted originals across thrillers, romantic comedies, family movies and holiday programming. The YouTube distribution deal with Fremantle involves 200 movies.

MyTime’s growing slate of original productions includes exclusive female-driven formats made in partnership with leading brands and celebrities, such as lifestyle cooking series @Home with Tori Spelling. A slate of original movies are in production, starring Ashley Newbrough and Jessica Lowndes among others.

The deal will include Spanish-language feed, MyTime En Española, fully dubbed into neutral Spanish and featuring 500 hours of content, with new exclusives added throughout the year.

The MyTime brand is already present in 21 countries and six languages, including MyTime en Español for Spanish-speaking audiences and localised offerings fully dubbed in German, French, Castilian Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.

The deal was brokered by Kyle Harris, VP of international acquisitions for Fremantle, together with lawyer Sam Singleton and MyTime Movie Network co-founders Jacob Nasser and Jack Nasser.

Highlighting Fremantle’s global infrastructure, senior VP of global channels Laura Florence said: “That allows us not only to power our own FAST and digital channels, but also to help partners like MyTime Movie Network expand their footprint across both FAST and YouTube.”
