Globo and Telemundo Studios have signed a understanding (MoU) to develop and co-produce premium scripted content.
The collaboration builds on their long-standing relationship and reinforces both companies’ commitment to expanding their storytelling reach across the U.S., Brazil, and global content markets.
Under the MoU, Globo and Telemundo will collaborate on the development and co-production of original films and series to be released as Globoplay Originals in Brazil and across Telemundo’s broadcast and streaming platforms in the U.S. While titles, formats, and production models are still being defined, the focus is on creating high-value intellectual property (IP) with broad international appeal.
“This collaboration marks an important step in expanding our storytelling reach and building a creative bridge between Brazil and the broader Hispanic world. With our unique expertise and ability to produce content that resonates globally, this partnership is going to strengthen our editorial alignment and paves the way for premium scripted projects that connect with audiences across borders,” said Javier Pons, Chief Content Officer & Head of Telemundo Studios, NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises.
Globo and Telemundo Studios have a history of co-producing Spanish-language adaptations of iconic Globo telenovelas, including Vale Tudo (Vale Todo), O Clone (El Clon), and Fina Estampa (Marido en Alquiler), alongside series such as Amores Roubados (Jugar con Fuego).
“This co-production understanding with Telemundo Studios reinforces Globo’s investment in creating scripted IP that captivates audiences worldwide. By bringing together our strengths, we’re confident we can develop compelling stories that not only resonate in Brazil and the U.S. but also expand our international reach at a time when global storytelling is more important than ever,” said Manuel Belmar, Director of Digital Products at Globo.
