STUDIOCANAL has sold the ambitious daily drama Two Lives (Dos Vidas) to Pickbox for their channel Pickbox TV and to SVOD platform Pickbox NOW. 255 x 60 minute episodes of the premium series will be available later this year throughout Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia, Macedonia and Montenegro.
Created originally for RTVE in Spain, ratings-winning Two Lives has also been acquired by other European broadcasters including LNK Lithuania, YLE Finland, NRK Norway and C8 France.
These sales come after the highly-anticipated launch of the series earlier this month on Mediaset Italy. This latest launch attracted a strong audience of 2.219.000 million viewers and an impressive 23,6% market share in Italy.
From the multi-award-winning BambúProducciones, a STUDIOCANAL Company (Cable Girls, VelvetCollection, Grand Hotel) led by Ramón Campos and Teresa Fernández Valdésand the creator of successful daily shows Josep Cister (Acacias 38, A Different View, Presumed Guilty), Two Lives is a drama series which cleverly connects two strong women in a fascinating universal story of love and family with a modern narrative echoing the past and the present.
Sarah Mottershead, Sales Director, TV Series at STUDIOCANAL who brokered the deals throughout CEE comments, ‘We are delighted to see Two Lives continuing to find new homes in even more European territories across cable, SVOD and free-to-air channels. It is an exceptionally well-produced, long-running series which has been a huge hit on RTVE, reaching the top 10 of the most-watched shows alongside primetime series. We can’t wait to seethis same success travel across the continent later this year’.
