Oct 12, 2023
Turkish Drama series Golden Boy has now been licensed to more than 100 countries, following the latest raft of deals completed by international distributor Eccho Rights. Azam Channels have picked up the title across Africa, with Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Malawi, Ghana, Botswana, Zambia and Zimbabwe all set to air the hit series, which recently returned for its second season in Turkey.
The OGM Pictures-produced drama has also been sold to Poland (TVP), Czechia (Nova TV), Serbia (Happy TV) and Kazakhstan (Khabar) in the past month and scored a number of breakthrough international sales, including becoming the first Turkish drama to air on free-to-air TV in the MENA region since a blanket ban on Turkish productions in 2018. Earlier in 2023, Golden Boy became the first Turkish drama ever picked up for broadcast in Finland (MTV Oy/C More), and also the first such title licensed by a commercial broadcaster in Sweden (TV4).
Handan Özkubat, Director of Turkish Drama, Eccho Rights: “With the start of the second season in Turkey, Golden Boy has cemented its position as the most watched drama series in the country each week, and now in more than 100 countries worldwide the title is unarguably one of the most successful Turkish Drama series we have ever seen in the international market.”

Eccho Rights to represent The Trio
We are hugely excited to announce the latest title in our Western European Drama line-up: The Trio. Currently in production for SkyShowtime, the six-part romantic drama is based on the literary phenomenon Trion, by Swedish novelist Johanna Hedman. The best-selling book took the international publishing world by storm, and we are now looking forward to the television adaptation doing the same! The Trio is produced by SF Studios in association with Night Train Media, SkyShowtime, SVT and Film in Stockholm.
The series stars August Wittgenstein (The Crown), Felix Sandman (Quick Sand), Seth Manteus (Cherries) and Rebecka Harp.
The Trio is a story about love, sex and passion – a reflection of the meaning of life and the relentless passage of time.
When middle-aged Hugo is approached by the daughter of both of his childhood loves, he is thrown back twenty years in time. Hugo is about to embark on his first years at university and has moved to Stockholm to become a resident of the Stiller family. This is where he meets Thora, the daughter of the house. This is also where he meets August, Thora's constant companion and occasional lover.
This is just the beginning of a wonderful friendship, of a whirlwind love affair, of the realisation nothing will ever be the same again. This is also the reason why Hugo never truly moved on. Will he dare to reclaim everything he has lost?
