Fremantle has agreed a first look deal with Nevermind Pictures, the production company founded by Kristen Stewart (Love Lies Bleeding, Spencer), screenwriter Dylan Meyer (Moxie) and producer Maggie McLean (Boygenius: The Film, John Bronco).
The multi-year deal will see Fremantle become the primary home for all of Nevermind’s film and television projects, with the producer working closely with its Global Drama division and, for the TV titles, its international distribution team, FMI.
The partnership was spearheaded by Christian Vesper, CEO Global Drama, and Seb Shorr, COO Global Drama.
The first projects that will be produced as part of the deal will be announced shortly. They will include titles encompassing films, drama and documentaries. Stewart, Meyer and McLean’s role will vary on each project with Stewart directing, writing and/or acting, Meyer directing and writing and all three partners producing.
Kristen Stewart, Dylan Meyer and Maggie McLean, Partners, Nevermind Pictures, said: “We are emphatically thrilled to be partnering with such esteemed and likeminded creative partners. We’re blown away by the talent Fremantle has amassed under their umbrella and can’t wait to cut our teeth on our initial forays alongside them.”
