    MUMBAI: Shine International and Fox International Channels (Fic) have taken global telecast rights for ?The Bridge?.

    ?The Bridge? will air across Fic?s entertainment channel portfolio of 200 pay-TV networks to audiences in 120 countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East.

    The show will air in the US on FX later this year.

    According to the deal, Fic will get first-window pay broadcast rights globally.

    Fic president, CEO Hernan Lopez said, "We can?t wait to turn ?The Bridge? into the biggest new worldwide hit".

    Fic executive VP, global scripted programming, original development Sharon Tal Yguado said, "We?ve been excited and interested in ?The Bridge? since we identified the format more than a year ago. It is rare to come across a project that bucks convention by marrying provocative themes with grounded storytelling and characters. We are thrilled to be partnering with Shine International and working with Shine America and FX on this outstanding drama."

    Shine International CEO Nadine Nohr said, "We are delighted to confirm FIC as the first international broadcast partner for ?The Bridge?. This distinctive series places the brilliant central conceit against the unique setting and sociopolitical context of the Mexican-US border beautifully allowing a new and extraordinary story to unfold. We are proud to represent such an ambitious and riveting drama."
