The overall deal will focus primarily on original scripted and unscripted content for television with 101 Studios serving as production partner on all projects.
“Developing a continued partnership with Paramount & 101 Studios is a huge honor and I am looking forward to working together on a new slate of projects” Fuqua said in a statement to TheWrap. “They are great partners to work with on “Mayor of Kingstown,” and share in the vision of what’s to come for Hill District Media.”
