French media company Mediawan has signed a strategic partnership with Paris and New York-based creative studio Good Hero to make two to three internationally-focused projects a year.
Mediawan and Good Hero will co-develop and co-produce high-end television series and features, both live and animation and mostly in the English language, adapted from Good Hero’s slate of original content.
Good Hero was founded in 2020 by leading French producer Laurent Zeitoun and CEO Gregory Ouanhon. Zeitoun’s producing credits include The Intouchables andThe Death Of Stalin, and his directorial debut Fireheart is now on release in France.
Good Hero’s Kiel Murray, who has writing credits on films including Cars and Raya And The Dragon, will supervise story development with Zeitoun and executive produce all scripted content on behalf of the studio. The collaboration is being overseen by Mediawan Pictures’ Elisabeth d’Arvieu.
Mediawan was founded by Pierre-Antoine Capton, Xavier Niel and Matthieu Pigasse in 2015, and has over 50 production labels across Europe. In 2020, Mediawan partnered with Germany’s Leonine Studios for European co-production venture, Mediawan & Leonine Studios.
