Planet Single. Eight Stories: new CANAL+ production for M7 markets on its way
M7 Group, one of Europe’s leading pay TV providers serving over 3 million subscribers, is increasingly benefiting from being part of CANAL+ Group, global top player in the area of premium content production. Not only has M7 access to the rich content library of CANAL+ with series such as Baron Noir and Spotless, it also benefits from its know-how and experience regarding the production of exclusive and high quality European fiction.
A current example is Planet Single. Eight Stories, the first series of the CANAL+ ORIGINAL label co-produced by CANAL+ Poland and M7. Planet Single is a romantic anthology based on the success of the Polish blockbuster movies franchise with the same title. The episodes differ in tone and genre, exploring at times romantic comedy, dark comedy, suspense and drama, but always on a common theme: love.
Emphasizing the European character of the Planet Single series, all episodes are filmed against the background of European capitals Warsaw, Prague, Vienna and Amsterdam. In the course of 2022, the eight episodes of the Planet Single series will become available for subscribers of the various M7 television platforms throughout Europe.
Stefano Colombo, VP Content at M7 comments: “A recent study by CANAL+ among SVOD users in the Benelux and other European markets confirmed a strong – and unfulfilled – appetite for original and exclusive fiction content, with a European flavor. In that respect, Planet Single is ticking all the boxes and we are very excited to be involved in its current production. The fact that Planet Single is filmed in the capitals of various M7 markets adds of course an extra dimension.”
