BBC Studios aims to achieve a multilingual production in Latin America for 2019.
“We are working very hard with the Los Angeles group in content in Spanish and multilingual. This is something very innovative for us, since it is the first time it is being done. We think that by January the sizzle reels of this type of content will be ready, and we will be able to talk with the big ones in Latin America to see if they are interested. We are also seeking co-productions, what ideas are out there to see how the BBC can work on them. At the same time, we continue with what nourishes us, which is the sales of content. We have content such as the series MotherFatherSon with Richard Gere, Les Miserables and many others that have not yet been announced and will be announced during the BBC Showcase 2019. We hope to have a very successful participation in Natpe,” commented David Hanono, SVP Sales and Digital at BBC Studios for Latin America & US Hispanic.
He mentioned that they continue in conversations to produce the local versión of Top gear. “It is a pressing topic, but it has to be done correctly,” he adds. He also said they are driving the format of Doctor Foster for Brazil, but now there is another country in Latin America that is interested and will soon be announced.
