Octagon Films has been awarded development funding from MEDIA's April 2011 Call for Proposals for Slate Funding. This will enable Octagon to maintain the momentum of their slate throughout the development process.
When it premiered in April, The Borgias, a period drama full of sex and scheming, grabbed the attention of 1.3 million viewers.
Season One of The Borgias picked up two awards at the Creative Arts Primetime Emmy Awards on Saturday night in Los Angeles. The hit TV show picked up the top awards in both the Outstanding Costumes and Outstanding Main Theme Music categories.
The producers of the series expressed their appreciation for the creativity and hard work the crew had put into the production, and are thrilled to see this work recognised by the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
Juanita Wilson's Bosnian war drama "As If I Am Not There" won film, director and script at the 8th Irish Film and Television Awards in Dublin on Saturday.
Irish producer of ‘The Borgias’ James Flynn gives his reaction to the fantastic news that the series has been nominated for six Primetime Emmy Awards.
Despite her exotic first name, Juanita Wilson is all Irish, born and bred in Dublin, where she lives with her producer-husband, James Flynn. That said, the director isn't afraid to venture far afield in search of the stories she wants to tell.
The April 1st US premiere of the first two episodes of 'Camelot' on the Starz network drew in the largest ever opening for a new drama series on Starz, exceeding the highly successful Spartacus premiere. Furthermore, following its premiere screening at MIPTV Camelot has now made extensive worldwide sales. Fellow Irish co-production, 'The Borgias', written, directed, created and co-produced by Neil Jordan opened on Sunday, April 3rd and achieved Showtime's highest premiere ratings since 2003 and was even 20% up on mega hit The Tudors premiere figures.
