What Happened
BritBox has secured the streaming rights for the upcoming psychological thriller series ‘Gone’, created by George Kay, known for works like ‘Hijack’ and ‘Lupin’. The deal was announced during the London TV Screenings week and covers the U.S. and Canada. The six-part series, featuring David Morrissey and Eve Myles, is set to premiere in the U.K. on ITV this spring.
Why It Matters
This acquisition is significant as ‘Gone’ is expected to be a major addition to BritBox’s lineup, which already includes popular British shows such as ‘Downton Abbey’ and ‘The Office’. The series explores themes of trauma and trust, centering on the mysterious disappearance of Sarah Polly and the ensuing psychological tension between her husband and a detective.
What’s Next
‘Gone’ will debut on ITV and ITVX in March, with BritBox aiming to attract more subscribers by offering exclusive content. Viewers in the U.S. and Canada can look forward to this gripping drama as part of their BritBox subscription, which is currently available at a discounted rate of $82.50 for the first year.
