Banijay Checks Into ‘The Fortune Hotel’ With ITV & Stephen Mangan
Exclusive: Banijay is checking into The Fortune Hotel ahead of Mipcom Cannes.
The indie powerhouse has acquired global distribution rights to the ITV1 and Itvx reality entertainment show set in a luxury Caribbean resort.
Banijay picked up the rights from Lego Masters producer Tuesday’s Child and will represent the format, with sales arm Banijay Rights selling finished tape for the ITV series. Tuesday’s Child, part of the Stv Studios-owned Greenbird Media, is retaining format production rights in the U.S., similar to the deal structure it has in place with Banijay for the much-travelled Lego Masters.
The Fortune Hotel, hosted by The Split and Green Wing actor Stephen Mangan, follows 10 pairs of contestants who compete across eight episodes for £250,000. Each pair is given a briefcase, with one holding the cash and another an Early Checkout Card, which eliminates whoever is holding it at the end of each episode.
