THRILLING PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMAWOLF CREEK  PREMIERES FIRST ON FOX

​​FOX UK have acquired 6 x 60’ psychological thriller Wolf Creek from Banijay Group’s distribution arm Zodiak Rights.  Based on the international hit feature film of the same name, John Jarratt reprises his role as murdering psychopath Mick Taylor, wreaking havoc in the Australian Outback. Wolf Creek will premiere in the UK on Tuesday 30th August at 10pm on FOX.

Wolf Creek follows American teenager Eve Thorogood (Lucy Fry, 11.22.63) on holiday with her family in Northern Australia.  Sadistic killer Mick targets the family, viciously slaughtering them for his own twisted pleasure.  Seriously injured, Eve survives the massacre of her parents and little brother, and sets out to bring the killer to justice.  And so begins a chilling game of cat and mouse, with the roles reversed and the hunter becoming the hunted. A Tarantino-esque revenge tale, Wolf Creek reveals Eve’s complex and extraordinary journey, as she evolves from child to adult, from prey to predator. But can she triumph over Mick Taylor, evil incarnate? 
​Toby Etheridge, Head of Programming, FOX UK, commented: “Wolf Creek is a slick and tense psychological drama boasting gnarly thrills and heart-stopping tension. FOX is renowned for its high-quality horror hits including exorcism drama Outcast and the American Horror Story franchise, making Wolf Creek a perfect addition to our portfolio. Mick Taylor may not be good for tourism, but he’s great for entertainment!”.
 
Chris Stewart, VP Sales & Acquisitions, commented: “Zodiak Rights is delighted to be partnering with FOX to bring this fantastic series to UK viewers. Wolf Creek terrified a generation when the original film released in 2005 and with the same creative team at the helm, this brand new series is guaranteed to provide another premium dose of tension and terror!”

​Adapted for television by Peter Gawler, Greg McLean and Felicity Packard, Wolf Creek is a Stan Original Series, produced by Screentime, a Banijay Group company, in association with Emu Creek Pictures and financed with the assistance of Screen Australia and the South Australian Film Corporation.

FOX UK acquires MARVEL’S AGENT CARTER 

3/6/2015

Beautiful.  Brilliant. Deadly. Before there was S.H.I.E.L.D. there was Agent Peggy Carter  UK Premiere to air this July First On FOX

Why this has piqued our interest

The range of Marvel shows is growing but the absence of Agent Carter from UK screens has been something on an anomaly. Considering the show is headed by Hayley Atwell (a dual nationality actress born in London) and is the most British property on Marvel's television roster at this time, it has seemed odd that no UK network until now has picked the series up.

Thankfully come July this will change as FOX UK will be showing the series in full. The first series runs for 8 episodes but considering the show has a second season in production we are hopeful that FOX will continue their relationship with the show into next year.

For now though we only have a little while longer to wait until the show airs.

All the Details

FOX UK has acquired the rights to the ABC Studios action-packed ­­­­­­­­drama Marvel’s Agent Carter from Disney UK and Ireland in a deal negotiated by Toby Etheridge and Cecilia Beacon for FOX. The 8 x 60” series is inspired by the feature films Marvel's Captain America: The First Avenger and Marvel's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, along with the shortMarvel One-Shot: Agent Carter and will premiere in the UK First On FOX this July.Marvel’s Agent Carter is produced by ABC Studios and Marvel Television.

It’s 1946 and Agent Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell reprising her role from Marvel’s "Captain America" films) is working for the covert SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve).  Relegated to administrative work, she is bored and frustrated.  Sworn to protect those who cannot protect themselves, Agent Carter is a highly trained field agent and her male colleagues have made a huge mistake underestimating her. When old acquaintance Howard Stark (Dominic Cooper, Marvel's Captain America: The First Avenger) finds himself being framed for unleashing his deadliest weapons, he contacts Peggy — the only person he can trust — to track down those responsible, dispose of the weapons and clear his name.

If caught going on these secret missions for Stark, Peggy could be targeted as a traitor and spend the rest of her days in prison — or worse. As she delves deeper into her investigation, she discovers things are not as they seem. Is Stark as innocent as he claims? Marvel's Agent Carter also stars James D'Arcy(Broadchurch) as Edwin Jarvis, Chad Michael Murray (One Tree Hill, A Cinderella Story) as Agent Jack Thompson, Enver Gjokaj (Dollhouse) as Agent Daniel Sousa and Shea Whigham (American Hustle, The Wolf of Wall Street) as Chief Roger Dooley. 

Marvel’s Agent Carter is FOX UK’s first acquisition since Jeff Ford took on the role of Managing Director, FIC UK, in April.  He commented:  “Marvel’s Agent Carter is blockbuster Hollywood entertainment at its best.  With high production values and a stellar UK and international cast, the series is the perfect addition to FOX UK’s summer line up, continuing the channel’s commitment to bring  exclusive, original and breakthrough series to a UK audience.”

Dayna Donaldson, General Manager, Media Distribution, Disney UK and Ireland adds: “Marvel’s Agent Carter is another great example of gripping storytelling from ABC Studios, so we’re delighted that it has found a home in the UK on FOX. We’re sure that the compelling, fast-paced and mysterious storylines will keep UK viewers on the edge of their seats this summer.”
Marvel’s Agent Carter joins an unmissable summer line-up on FOX. This June sees the final ever season of alien sci-fi drama Falling Skies.  The Steven Spielberg epic stars Noah Wyle battling for survival and freedom in the aftermath of a global alien invasion. American Detective anthology Murder In The First also returns with a brand new case for detectives Terry English (Taye Diggs) and Hildy Mulligan (Kathleen Roberts) to solve in June.

Marvel’s Agent Carter is executive produced by Tara Butters (Resurrection), Michele Fazekas (Resurrection), Christopher Markus (Marvel's Captain America: The First Avenger, Marvel's Captain America: The Winter Soldier), Stephen McFeely (Marvel's Captain America: The First Avenger, Marvel's Captain America: The Winter Soldier), Chris Dingess (Men in Trees), Kevin Feige (Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel's The Avengers), Louis D'Esposito (Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel's Iron Man 3), Alan Fine (Marvel's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Marvel's Thor), Joe Quesada (Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Marvel's Avengers Assemble), Stan Lee (Spider-Man, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk) and Jeph Loeb (Smallville, Lost, Heroes).

Don’t miss the UK premiere of Marvel’s Agent Carter, this July First on FOX.
