Global Agency acquired the international rights for Queens (9 episodes), created and produced by the Spaniard José Luis Moreno. Queens is a period drama in English that depicts the confrontations between two powerful monarchs: Elizabeth I of England (Rebecca Scott, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies) and Mary Stuart of Scotland (Olivia Chenery, Brotherhood). The version in Spanish has already been launched by Spain’s RTVE in MIP TV. Now, Global Agency is partnering with Moreno to introduce the original version in the international market.
Izzet Pinto, CEO of Global Agency, commented: “We are thrilled to partner with José Luis Moreno, a true legend with his abilities for acting and producing. We were enthusiastic about Queens and impressed from the first moment in which we noticed it because of its history, structure, and quality in terms of acting and production. Our goal is to distribute this epic content worldwide”.
For his part, Moreno expressed: “After more than 180 national and international productions, I considered the challenge of producing the most ambitious series of our long career, Queens, and luckily it became a great hit. We needed the best distributors, with power, prestige, sensitivity, and habit to work with projects of great quality. After more than 30 proposals, we found a young and striving team that has as much respect for the audience as for their clients and great success in sales, which makes them invincible. I am speaking of Global Agency, our ambassador for the original Queens version, whose 9 episodes will tour the world.”
