In recent months, Banijay, which operates 120 production entities across 22 territories, has upped its operations and talent in the scripted space. Candilis will focus on identifying and bringing in co-production ventures and high-end scripted projects in southern Europe.
Having started his career as an independent producer, the entrepreneur has also held leadership roles at TF1, Lagardère Entertainment, Tara Productions and Caméras Continentales. “What a difference two years makes,” Candilis added. “Banijay was always an inspiring, ambitious and ultimately creative business, but over the past few months, it has rapidly expanded and become a leading player in the scripted space. It’s a great time to be returning as the group continues to innovate and I look forward to working with the team to identify original premium IP projects and collaboration opportunities across southern Europe.
