In further new deals, the Spain-set modern-day Western has also now been swooped on by HBO Eastern Europe and has licensed Poland , Hungary , Portugal and the Baltics .
After a muted early 2022, “slowly but surely, over the last three months, our movies are finding their place in the market,” Latido Films head Antonio Saura told Several factors may be at play. Festival success can be crucial. The Tokyo trophy trifecta “triggered interest from more reluctant clients,” Saura said.
“Virus 32,” a novel zombie movie from The Silent House director Gustavo Hernández, has now licensed MENA with Oceana Studios and Poland with Media 4 Fun. A high-profile title to track since it was first unveiled at the virtual Cannes Market in 2020, pre-selling Japan to AT Ent., “Virus 32” prior deals include a release on AMC Networks’ streaming platform Shudder in the U.S., U.K., other English-language territories, Latin America, Spain and Portugal.
Also, with streamers recalibrating ever more as general interest TVs, one mounting question, said Saura, is whether the old world of theatrical distribution followed by a TV window will return once more. “I think some distributors could be looking at what’s happening and thinking: ‘Maybe we have a chance of survival,’” he added.
