Talent Group plc ('Talent' or 'the Company')
Acquisition of UK rights
Following the recent announcement of a potential strategic alliance between
Talent's wholly owned subsidiary Talent Television Limited ('Talent TV') and
Amberwood Productions Inc, ('Amberwood') Talent TV has acquired the UK rights
from Amberwood to 'ZEROMAN', a 13 episode series currently in production.
'ZEROMAN' is an animation series targeted at the 8 years and over audience and
was developed to feature the voice of Hollywood actor Leslie Nielsen. Neilsen
plays the hapless, incompetent superhero, Zeroman, who is the alter-ego of Fair
City's favourite mailman, Les Mutton.
Talent TV has taken the UK rights to this first series developed by Amberwood
for Teletoon in Canada and has agreed to co-produce all subsequent series.
Talent director and head of Talent Kids, Annie Miles, commented, 'I am
delighted that we have acquired 'ZEROMAN'. It is a superb comedy animation
series, with great production values and wild storylines that will appeal to a
wide audience of all ages around the world.'
