Dori Media Group (DMG), the studio behind hits like Losing Alice, Lalola, Rebelde, The New Black, Ciega a Citas, and Dumb, is introducing its latest and highly original horror-comedy series, Soul Sucker, to the international TV market. The announcement was made today by Nadav Palti, CEO & President of Dori Media Group.
Set to premiere this year on HOT (Israel), Soul Sucker is created, written, and starring Bat Hen Sabag, the creative force behind the award-winning series Dumb—which was adapted in Germany as Rampensau, with more international versions on the way. The series is co-created and directed by Daphna Levin, known for her work as the creator, director, and producer of Euphoria and co-writer of In Treatment.
On Tuesday, February 25, Dori Media will host an exclusive screening for the global launch of Soul Sucker (eight episodes) at MIP London. Sabag and Levin will take part in a Q&A session, followed by a meet-and-greet.
Blending family drama, horror-comedy, and mystery, Soul Sucker unfolds over eight episodes with a touch of Romani folklore. Inspired by Sabag’s own life, this modern fairy tale of witches and spells delves into the complex relationships between mothers and daughters across three generations of an oppressive matriarchal family. The series explores the emotional wounds passed down by mothers while maintaining a unique sense of humor and an unconventional tone.
«Soul Sucker is unlike anything we have ever launched in the international market,» says Nadav Palti. «It’s a comedy, a mystery, a family drama, and a horror series—all packed into one gripping show you can’t take your eyes off. Created and starring Bat Hen Sabag, who turned Dumb into a global hit, and co-created by Daphna Levin, the creative mind behind Euphoria, we are confident that this exceptionally unique and original series will resonate with audiences worldwide.»
Recently, Dori Media announced that its flagship format Power Couple has been sold and renewed in multiple territories, including Brazil, Germany, and India.
Created by Abot Hameiri, Power Couple continues its global success with numerous adaptations—spanning over 20 countries, more than 60 seasons, and over 900 episodes produced.
