Mipcom Buzz Titles: Global Market Offers Eveything From ‘Baywatch’ to ‘Murder’ to ‘Cupertino’ to a New Angle on Princess Di and More

While the movers and shakers of global television, streaming and all manner of digital platforms descend on the Croisette, Variety looks at 21 projects that could go viral with buyers.

Baywatch Showrunner: Matt Nix; International distributor: Fremantle Set for a January debut on Fox and the U.K.’s Sky, a 12-episode reboot of the iconic international blockbuster has already seen a muscular presale to Prime Video for Canada, Latin America, India and much of Europe. Stephen Amell, Jessica Belkin and Shay Mitchell lead the new red swimsuit-clad cast. Fremantle promises it will deliver “high stakes rescues, explosive drama and plenty of beachside heat,” and such is the original’s pop culture status that this looks like one of the biggest titles at Mipcom this year.
