The public television group has announced that it is partnering with the streaming platform Amazon Prime Video to produce an action series dubbed "Black Hearts". France Televisions specifies that this alliance, to say the least unexpected, is a "plan B", in the absence of agreement with the European public broadcasters.
This is a first for the public service.
France Télévisions is teaming up with a foreign platform to produce a series.
And it will be with the Amazon Prime Video streaming platform that the public television group will work.
This collaboration, to say the least unexpected, will be based on a future series of action which will be called
Black Hearts
.
Its plot will revolve around special forces, with Ziad Doueiri as director.
It is to him that we owe in particular the film
The Insult
and the
Dérapages
miniseries
.

"Hearts
black "and" Ouija "
The future series born from this collaboration will first be broadcast on Amazon Prime Video, before arriving on France Télévisions.
But this partnership constitutes a "plan B", according to France Televisions details.
The public group usually explains that it favors co-productions with European public broadcasters.
But France Télévisions will all the same co-produce another series on a foreign platform.
It will be a fantastic series called
Ouija
, like the wooden plaque engraved with an alphabet used to communicate with spirits.
The identity of the foreign partner platform remains secret for the moment.
