have said they are receiving a lot of interest in the studio, including from U.K. network ITV.
“All3 is an incredible business,” Fries continued. “But the industry is changing and studios are searching for scale, especially pure play studios like All3Media. Warner Bros. Discovery are our partner and we decided this might be a business that has greater value in a larger platform and could be a catalyst for consolidation and really help transform other studio businesses. It has nothing to do with the business itself.
Fries said aside from ITV a number of companies had expressed an interest in snapping up the business, which is known for producing hit shows including “Fleabag” and “The Traitors.” Fries also addressed the WGA and SAG strikes that have brought the industry — both at home and abroad — to an almost total standstill. “It’s a tricky, tricky question,” Fries said of how the strikes might be resolved.
