STUDIOCANAL inks first drama deal with Hong Kong’s PCCW

STUDIOCANAL, Europe’s leader in production, distribution and international sales of TV series and feature films, has signed a significant new drama deal with Hong Kong’s PCCW.

Representing the first collaboration between Hong Kong-based media group PCCW and STUDIOCANAL, the acquisition will see three premium English-language dramas from RED Production Company – a STUDIOCANAL company – making their debut on ViuTVsix next year.

The package includes four-part character-led thriller TRUST ME, produced for BBC One and starring Jodie Whittaker (Doctor Who, Broadchurch). Created and written by Danny Brocklehurst and produced for BBC One, three-part drama Come Home also heads to Hong Kong, alongside Harlan Coben’s The Five, a gripping ten-part original thriller created by the bestselling author for the UK’s Sky 1.
