DCD Media wins major format deal for Bridezillas
DCD Media plc is delighted to announce that it has licensed the
production of September Films' top-rated format 'Bridezillas' to
the broadcaster WE tv.
September Films' highly popular and long-running wedding series
Bridezillas will make its big return early next year to the
national female network WE. The reboot, which will be distributed
by DCD Rights (the distribution arm of DCD Media plc), is set to
premier 10 new hour-long episodes in 2018. DCD Rights, which
already holds the international rights to the previous 10 series of
Bridezillas, is looking forward to working with our partners at WE
tv on this exciting return of the iconic show.
Over the last decade, the wedding programme has become a
cultural phenomenon, giving rise to the Bridezillas: Marriage Boot
Camp franchise, which is also distributed by DCD Rights.
Bridezillas is a long-running series which has helped to drive the
commercial capabilities of DCD Media and to ensure its place as a
highly respected independent global rights distributor.
In addition to Bridezillas, DCD Rights also sold the format for
Penn & Teller: Fool Us (a 1/17 Productions & September
Films format) in the United States to the CW Network for which a
3(rd) season is currently enjoying a successful run.
David Craven, Group Chairman and Chief Executive said today: 'We
are obviously delighted that WE are working with us to bring back
Bridezillas. The format has been hugely popular over successive
seasons, and with some exciting characters featuring in the new
season, we are confident it will be another huge success.'
The information communicated in this announcement is inside
information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation
596/2014.
