Fremantle and ‘Gomorrah’ Director Stefano Sollima’s New Company AlterEgo Forge First Look Pact


Fremantle and 'Gomorrah' director Stefano Sollima's AlterEgo shingle have forged a first look pact that adds a top talent deal to the Fremantle roster

Sollima, who is known for milestone TV series “ Gomorrah ” and Hollywood movies such as “ Sicario: Day of the Soldado,” as well as “Without Remorse,” recently officially launched AlterEgo in tandem with ace U.S. showrunner Gina Gardini and longtime collaborator, writer/director Ludovico Purgatori. The high-powered trio have been associates since “Gomorrah” and, more recently, Sollima’s Rome-set crime drama “Adagio” – which launched from Venice last year – and his upcoming Netflix serial killer series “Il Mostro” – the latter two partly produced by AlterEgo in tandem with Fremantle-owned The Apartment. AlterEgo joins a high-caliber roster of global creative talents under the Fremantle banner that already has other first look deals in place with, among others, Kristen Stewart; Dylan Meyer and Maggie Mclean’s Nevermind Pictures; Pablo and Juan de Dios Larraín’s Fabula; Luca Guadagnino; Paolo Sorrentino; Angelina Jolie; Rachel Weisz and Polly Stokes’ Astral Projection; Edward Berger and his label Nine Hours; Johan Renck and Michael Parets’ Sinestra; Patrick Daly’s Caledonia Productions “as well as ongoing collaborations with acclaimed writers and directors including Michael Winterbottom,” the expanding content company owned by German giant RTL noted in a statement.
