Producer Simon Andreae Joins Range Studios as Co-President of Non-Scripted TV Division
Producer Simon Andreae is joining Range Studios to co-run the non-scripted television studio division alongside Mark Herwick, who launched the studio.
Most recently, Andreae served as CEO of Fremantle U.K., one of the U.K.’s largest studio groups whose labels produce some of the country’s franchises including “Britain’s Got Talent,” “The Apprentice” and “Too Hot to Handle.” He resigned from the role in 2023, citing challenges to his health. Andreae was appointed to the role following Fremantle’s acquisition of the company he founded, Naked Television, whose output ranged from successful formats including “100% Hotter,” “Secret Crush,” “The Rap Game U.K.” and “The Day I Picked My Parents,” to documentaries like “Manson: The Lost Tapes” and “Planet Sex With Cara Delevingne.” Andreae started his career as a founding partner at U.K. indie Optomen Television, helping it grow with a broad mix of series from “Gore Vidal’s American Presidency” to “Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares.”
