Banijay completed the acquisition of Caryn Mandabach Productions.

Banijay, a television production and distribution company, completed the acquisition of Caryn Mandabach Productions, a scripted production company. Financial terms were not disclosed. “Caryn Mandabach is one of the legends of the UK/US drama markets and Banijay has been hugely privileged to work with her over the years (through Peaky Blinders co producer Tiger Aspect and via Banijay Rights), especially on the global phenomenon that is ‘Peaky Blinders’. Steve Knight’s truly unique vision found a similarly maverick spirit in producer partner Caryn and the series redefined TV drama. We are so excited to be announcing that Caryn’s company, CMP, is being fully acquired by Banijay, and are delighted that she’s agreed to a separate development deal with us and we look forward to future collaborations”. He added: “Steve has plans for future chapters of the ‘Peaky Blinders’ universe and CMP’s other development projects will also come to Banijay as part of the deal. Jamie Glazebrook will continue to work across this slate,” Patrick Holland, Banijay CEO UK.
