Veteran Studiocanal TV executive Rola Bauer is to join MGM as president of international television productions.
Bauer will oversee development, production and co-productions for MGM’s International Television division, reporting in to MGM Television Group chairman Mark Burnett.
Based in Munich, she will split her time between MGM’s European and Us offices.
Bauer announced she was departing earlier this month after Studiocanal acquired a 100% stake in its German subsidiary Tandem Productions. Bauer, a founding partner of Tandem and managing director of Studiocanal, said she was stepping down from both of her roles.
Bauer oversaw premium scripted content for Studiocanal including the series “Years and Years,” and “War of the Worlds,” while also spearheading acquisitions for “Midnight Sun,” “The Last Panthers,” and “Below the Surface.” On the international coproduction and distribution front, she handled the upcoming “ZeroZeroZero,” as well as Harlan Coben’s “Safe,” her third Coben series, for Netflix and Canal+ Group.
