The first co-produced project will be “The Childhood of Romeo and Juliet”, by author Iris Abravanel
Prime Video and SBT signed a long-term agreement on licensing and co-production of soap operas.
As a result of this agreement, Prime members will soon be able to watch “Poliana Moa”, which is currently airing on SBT, also on Amazon’s streaming service.
For SBT, this is another strategic step that will create many joint licensing and co-production opportunities. It is very good to have such a serious employee, who recognizes the importance of local content and values the quality and strength of the productions made by SBT, said José Roberto Maciel, president of Grupo Silvio Santos.
The first co-produced project will be “The Childhood of Romeo and Juliet”, by author Iris Abravanel. The telenovela tells the story of two children from opposite socio-economic realities who are born into rival families.
We already have an exceptional relationship with SBT and, through this long-term agreement, we are strengthening ties and paving the way for many joint projects, thus reinforcing our investment in local content, with many ideas already in progress, completed Joo Mesquita, country manager of Prime Video Brasil.
