Disney has announced its initial slate of scripted UK originals for Disney+ working with creatives from ‘Killing Eve’ and more.
Three UK productions have been confirmed for Disney+; one Disney-branded and two Star-branded originals that will add a diverse range of new stories. Spanning a wide range of genres, commissions include a swashbuckling family adventure, an electrifying heist drama and an innovative comedy series.
BAFTA Award-winning writer Sally Wainwright, along with BAFTA-winning producers Sally Woodward Gentle (Sid Gentle Films), Faith Penhale (Lookout Point) and Stephen Garrett (Character 7), are among the talent whose series will be launched on Disney+. Debut screenwriter Emma Moran brings an innovative Star Original comedy to the service.
The news follows the earlier announcement that Disney has teamed up with legendary footballer David Beckham on a factual entertainment series that will see Beckham going back to his roots to mentor a struggling young grassroots team.
