Roland Emmerich’s Gladiator Series ‘Those About to Die’ to Be Distributed in Eastern Europe by Eccho Rights
Roland Emmerich's gladiator series 'Those About to Die' will be distributed in Eastern and Central Europe by Eccho Rights at NATPE Budapest.
The Stockholm-headquartered Eccho Rights – which is owned by German investment and co-production outfit Night Train Media, headed by Herbert L. Kloiber – will be launching regional sales at the NATPE Budapest market later this month on the hotly anticipated 10-episode gladiator show. “As tensions mount, everyone’s fates hinge on the intense races and deadly games at the Circus Maximus and Flavian Amphitheatre, where the scheming and corrupt bookmaker Tenax (Rheon), holds sway over Rome’s future,” according to the provided synopsis. Executive producers on the series are Emmerich; Harald Kloser (“2012”); Gianni Nunnari (“300”); Herbert G. Kloiber; Martin Moszkowicz; Oliver Berben, and Jonas Bauer for High End Productions; Stuart Ford, Lourdes Diaz, Charles Holland and Miguel A. Palos Jr. for AGC Studios; Marco Kreuzpaintner, Robert Rodat and Namit Malhotra.
