Reel One reveals MipTV line-up

Canadian producer and distributor Reel One Entertainment is preparing to launch its largest ever slate of TV movies at MipTV next week.

The company recently expanded its slate with the addition of five movies from US-based Hallmark TV, including the recently aired Cooking With Love, as well as Christmas movies Magical Christmas Ornaments (aka Her Magical Christmas) and A Gift to Remember (aka A Gift for Christmas).

The latter two titles have already been acquired by broadcasters in France, Spain, Canada and Belgium, with details yet to be revealed.

Joining the Hallmark titles are thriller Love Me Or Else (aka The Wrong Daughter), Eyewitness (aka Ex-Wife Killer) and crime thriller Deadly Exchange, all of which aired on Lifetime TV.

Louisa Cadywould, senior VP, head of international distribution for Reel One, said the company had experienced “increased demand” for its TV movies from international commercial broadcasters.

Reel One has been expanding its sales team of late, appointing execs from UK broadcaster Channel 4 plus TCB Media Rights and Warner Bros.

The company also hired former Lifetime and Pukeko Pictures executive Adam Fratto as its senior VP of series last year.
