TMG's Kloiber keeps pace on Croisette
MORE MIPCOM
CANNES -- The news of Leo Kirch's return to the TV business has been the subject of a lot of chatter among European executives at this year's MIPCOM. But the German mogul who never left the scene -- Tele Munchen Group's Herbert Kloiber -- also is making his presence felt.
Kloiber on Tuesday joined forces with German public broadcaster ZDF for a €12 million ($17 million) remake of the Jack London adventure classic "The Seawolf".
U.K. screenwriter Nigel Williams ("Elizabeth I") will pen the script for the two-part miniseries that ZDF, Tele Munchen's production division Clasart and British group Power will co-produce. Power will handle international sales.
Rikolt von Gagern, whose recent film adaptation of Martin Walser's "A Runaway Horse" has been a success for TMG's theatrical arm Concorde in Germany, will produce with Power's Justin Bodle. Kloiber will be lead manager on the project, which will begin shooting in mid-2008.
The original "Seawolf" miniseries in 1971 put TMG on the map in Germany. It was one of the main reasons Kloiber acquired the company in 1977.
Kloiber also was busy in TMG's bread-and-butter business of rights trading. Shortly before MIPCOM, he won a bidding war for three of the hottest new U.S.
