‘Stewart’

The UK’s  Noah Media Group has secured worldwide rights to motor racing documentary Stewart, and is launching the title at next week’s MIPTV in Cannes (April 4-6).

Noah is aiming for theatrical partners in major territories, with streamers and TV in smaller countries.

Stewart charts the story of Glasgow-born F1 racing driver Jackie Stewart, from his first World Championship in 1969 through his long campaign to improve racing safety.

It is written and directed by Fabergé: A Life Of Its Own director Patrick Mark, and produced by Sarah Bayntun and Gareth Dodds. Stewart’s son Mark Stewart is executive producer for Mark Stewart Productions, alongside Bill Pohlad and Jean-Marc Huet.

Stewart joins Noah’s slate of non-fiction sports titles, including another F1 feature Villeneuve & Pironi; and Amazon Prime Video release Arsene Wenger: Invincible.
