COMMANDOS: MISSION SUCCESS WITH TOPIC AND SBS
SINCE OCTOBER 31TH 2020, LAGARDÈRE STUDIOS DISTRIBUTION IS A MEDIAWAN COMPANY
Leading French distributor Lagardère Studios Distribution (A Mediawan company) is delighted to announce the sale of the hit thriller Commandos to TOPIC in the USA and Canada and SBS in Australia, after an impressive launch on NPO3 in August.
“Commandos is in the top 5 list of Dutch content for drama…and among the top 10 for all Dutch programs (documentaries, etc.). These are the regular ratings for NPO 3, both linear and online. But on top of these regular ratings, with a million streams in only three months for online-on-demand, Commandos did more than fantastic!” says Mylene Verdurmen, Head of Drama at AVROTROS.
“We are extremely proud that the quality of our series Commandos has been recognized outside of the Dutch-speaking territory as well. To see the story of our tormented soldiers, travel to the US and Australia is something we are thrilled about. It is also proof that as an industry we’re growing,” says Kaja Wolffers, Creative Director/Producer, NL Film.
Produced by NL Film in collaboration with AVROTROS and NPO3, Commandos (10 x 45’) is a complex thriller series combining the suspense and action of a whodunit with an existential character drama.
Pitch:
After a failed covert mission in Nigeria, Commander John de Koning is adjusting to civilian life when two members of his old platoon die in suspicious circumstances. A deadly game of cat-and-mouse ensues when he learns the killer is one of his own men. Testing the loyalty of these highly trained ex-soldiers who’ve gone from hunter to hunted, John must confront some dark secrets from his past as he finds himself fighting a war that could cost him his buddies, his family and his life.
