Fremantle Signs New Five-Year Deal With Jamie Oliver

deadline.com:

Fremantle and the Jamie Oliver Group are extending their partnership in a big way. The new five-year agreement between the pair, who have been working together for more than two decades, will see them explore new entertainment opportunities.

Fremantle will hold global rights to Oliver’s TV Distribution, AVoD, FAST and digital platforms. Its Jamie Oliver FAST channel, which features a collection of the British cook’s shows, is currently available across 14 distribution platforms, including Pluto TV, Roku, and exclusively on Samsung TV in the UK, Germany and Nordics.

Fremantle, which has been Oliver’s distribution partner since 2002, said it will work closely with the Jamie Oliver team to further expand his digital footprint, following the launch of his TV library on YouTube in the U.S., with the objective of continuing to grow digital audiences.

The celebrity chef and restaurant owner’s prolific TV fare includes the likes of Jamie’s 15 Minute Meals, Jamie: Keep Cooking and Carry On and Jamie Cooks Christmas.
