BME's current credits include Hilary Duff's Heart of Summer
for New Line Cinema and the highly-rated series Even Stevens
and That's So Raven both airing on the Disney Channel.
Under the agreement, BME and MarVista will both serve as producers
for these new series with MarVista handling the worldwide distribution.
The first series, a teen drama to be announced shortly, is slated
to begin production in summer 2004.
According to an official release, this deal reunites BME and Michael
Jacobs who previously worked together and produced and distributed
the films Treehouse, Hostage and Wild Grizzly.
"We are pleased to be working with Michael once again and
are confident that this new venture with MarVista will lead to a
long-term relationship where together we will produce and distribute
top-rated programs for children and teens around the world,"
stated Brookwell.
"This agreement ensures that we have sufficient output of
children's live-action series for the world markets from one of
the most prolific children's producers in the US," commented
Jacobs.
