- Amazon aims to present some main video programs to the new audiences
- The power rings and Citadel It could be broadcast on land channels outside the United States
- The aforementioned couple are two of the most expensive Amazon TV TV
Two of the most gathered Amazon television programs could be available to watch on platforms that are not Prime video.
According to Amazon MGM Studios distribution head, Chris Ottinger (as cited by Variety), spectators can soon watch some of the television titles first of the study in another service.
In fact, programs such as The power rings and CitadelIt is believed that they are among the most expensive main video projects, they could reach land channels in non -Americans.
According to Variety’s report, Amazon is already buying the duo mentioned above. In fact, it is said that the distribution arm of its entertainment division is already in conversations with the broadcasters of the United Kingdom such as the BBC and the ITV, the German RTL and ZDF networks, and the Mediaset of Italy.
If any of the previous parts decides to transmit Citadel And the Amazon Lord of the Rings prequels series in people’s homes in their respective nations, however, will not be cheap.
Talk about The power rings Specifically, Ottinger told Variety: “We want premium prices because it’s a premium product.
“Season 1 was the premiere of the largest television series in the history of Prime Video and season 2 was the most watched return season in the main video at that time. Ultimately, it depends on the couple and where they plan to place it. If someone wants it for Thursday at 8 pm, a prime slot, I hope that the best price.”
It is not clear how much money for the Prime video is looking to syndicate, an elegant industry term for the distribution of films and programs, its titles first.
However, Ottinger is confident that this is the right strategy for Amazon. That is based on the success that their transmission rivals have enjoyed, such as Netflix, including the large increase in the audience and subscribers that Netflix assured when the Meghan Markle star Costumes In 2023. With that in mind, it is an approach that the prime video expects to replicate offering its original and television originals to others.
“We brought premium library titles to the market to test its performance in Prime Video while they were also broadcast on third -party platforms,” Ottinger added.
“One of the objectives was to see if they would benefit from an impulse in the style of Netflix or if they would end up cannibalizing our own audience. The effect we saw was neutral to positive for a main video.”
Will Amazon also buy less expensive movies and television series in the future? That remains to be seen. The company’s entertainment division has plans to offer two other shows: Countdown and Butterfly -The third -party channels. However, they will only be available after a period of exclusivity of 18 months in Prime Video.
No one knows how expensive this pair should do, so it is difficult to discern if Amazon needs to recover his money in those two as he does with The power rings and Citadel.
The power rings Season 3 is currently under development and, once it is released in one of the best transmission services in the world, it will be in the middle of your five -seasons career. Well, as long as one of the best prime videos is not canceled in advance.
Meanwhile, the future of the spy thriller of Prime Video Citadel It is less safe. In April, Amazon canceled the second installments of CitadelTwo spin-offs. And, while the work is ongoing in the second year departure of the main series, the acquisition of Amazon of the James Bond franchise in February could have not officially sounded death for the cousin video produced by the Russian brothers.
