A new international TV production company has been launched, based in London, New York and Los Angeles: Cove Pictures will produce drama, comedy and factual programmes for the international market.
Cove Pictures is a joint venture between Patrick Milling-Smith and Brian Carmody, the co-founders of Smuggler Inc., and Red Arrow Entertainment, the production subsidiary of German media company ProSiebenSat.1. Red Arrow will hold a minority stake in the company and will distribute Cove Pictures’ projects internationally.
Cove Pictures has also forged a creative alliance with Eon Productions, the UK-based film and television company run by Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli which produces the James Bond movies, to develop a number of shows for the international market.
Details on forthcoming projects will be announced in the coming months.
