Sheila’s outstanding track record and dedication to diverse storytelling align perfectly with our vision. Fresh off the success of the hit series Supacell, the timing couldn’t be better.”
Sheila Nortley said: “This is about collaboration and vision. In an industry that’s become so risk-averse, the biggest risk is not evolving. We’re excited to raise the bar by championing a spectrum of stories, voices, and perspectives, and creating outstanding TV.”
