Leading independent distributor All3Media International has secured the first international adaptation of The Inheritance, with Brazilian Media Group, Globo, commissioning a local version of Studio Lambert’s psychological reality format.
The Brazilian version will be available exclusively on Globo’s video-on-demand platform, Globoplay and produced by Formata.
“Reality shows are one of Globoplay’s key strengths, and we strongly believe in the potential of this format to create connection and engage Brazilian audiences in this competition. The local adaptation brings our specialized Brazilian perspective to the format. It is another investment aimed at bringing a major hit to our reality catalogue,” says Tatiana Costa, Head of Content Globoplay and Pay TV at Globo.
Yari Torres, VP LATAM and Hispanic US at All3Media International commented, “Globo’s track record for delivering must-watch reality television makes them the ideal partner to bring this bold, distinctive format to screen in Brazil. The Inheritance is a premium, high-drama reality series—addictive, insightful, and relentlessly entertaining. It immerses audiences in a world driven by entitlement, trust, greed, fairness, and persuasion, with the ability to attract A-list talent, and this new version promises to captivate audiences across this market.”
Tim Harcourt, Chief Creative Officer, Studio Lambert said: “We are thrilled that Globo and Formata are making a version of Studio Lambert’s competitive reality format. The Inheritance’s themes of strategy, alliance and the perception of what is fair in today’s world are universal. We are excited that Brazilian audiences will get to savor the drama of it all.”
Blending fiction and reality, the game show challenges contestants throughout the competition to test their intelligence, powers of persuasion, strategic thinking, and willingness to betray. Set against a backdrop of psychological tension, and unstable alliances, every decision can bring competitors closer to, or further from, the final prize.
The Inheritance marks the latest format from the Studio Lambert, the producer responsible for global hits including The Circle, Race Across the World and Gogglebox. More recently, its format Rise and Fall was adapted in India for Amazon MX, where it became the platform’s most-watched series to date.
