The global operation includes “Downton Abbey” producer Carnival Films, Working Title and Matchbox Pictures.
A former Hulu executive, Springborn says the rebrand is “a complete refresh of the way we look at our values, our mission and our vision.” It’s not about doing lip service, she says, but rather about building and rebuilding trust and “being additive to everything we do.” Broadcasters Telemundo in the U.S. and Sky in Europe and global streamer Peacock are the “priority” as far as distribution goes, but the executive quickly highlights that it’s still possible to work with different platforms.
One such example is “Big Little Lies” author Liane Moriarty’s novel “Apples Never Fall,” which is getting a series adaptation at Peacock. “We had a lot of interest across many different platforms, but ultimately Peacock was the most bullish in terms of the deal, and then you’ve got a Liane Moriarty project based on a bestselling New York Times novel helping to drive subscribers.”
