BuzzFeed sold a large library of shows, including hit celebrity wing-eating series 'Hot Ones,' to FilmRise.
“BuzzFeed and Complex carry a library of content that taps into the zeitgeist of today’s culture by taking an innovative perspective to traditional formats, whether that be the unique way ‘Hot Ones’ approaches the classic talk show format or ‘BuzzFeed Unsolved’ takes on the true crime genre,” said Jonitha Keymoore, VP of Global Content Acquisitions at FilmRise. “These titles already have a strong audience following and now, we are thrilled to bring them to everyone, worldwide.
Nick Wang, senior VP of business development and partnerships at BuzzFeed, commented, “This deal with FilmRise marks a milestone for our series and our studio. We’re excited to expand the footprint of our series to audience across digital platforms around the globe.” FilmRise is a New York City-based film and television studio and operator of the FilmRise Streaming Network, a portfolio of ad-supported streaming apps and FAST channels. FilmRise distributes content worldwide, invests in original content and works with digital creators to help them monetize their libraries in the greater streaming space. The company was founded in 2012 by veteran producers and financiers Danny Fisher, Jack Fisher and Alan Klingenstein.
