Chinese-language Remake of 'Call My Agent!' to Hit Global Screens via Taiwanese Production House Organic Media Group
A remake of the hit French comedy series "Call My Agent!" is set to premiere globally, courtesy of Taiwanese production house Organic Media Group. Based on the original series that has been adapted in over a dozen countries, this Chinese-language version will focus on the lives of agents working at a top Asian talent agency.
The new series will delve into the personal and professional struggles of these agents as they navigate superstar clients, office politics, and industry trends. With its unique blend of humor and drama, the remake is poised to captivate audiences worldwide. According to Organic Media Group co-founder Steve Chicorel, the production aims to cater to the global Chinese-speaking diaspora while showcasing Taiwanese talent.
What sets this remake apart is its emphasis on adding local nuances while maintaining international appeal. The production team has secured the talents of superstars from Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, and the United States, as well as Chinese actors. This diverse cast will bring a fresh perspective to the series, making it an exciting addition to the global entertainment landscape.
Award-winning French producer Natacha Devillers is at the helm of this adaptation, working closely with Taiwanese director Wu Zhongtian and writer Yang Jingxiang. The project has already garnered attention from industry professionals, including a best series pitch win from Mediacorp at the Asian Television Forum last year.
In addition to "Call My Agent!", Organic Media Group has announced three other series in development, all shot in Taiwan. These include supernatural detective series "Detective Daji", comedy-drama "Undertaker", and unscripted documentary-style series "Expats: Taiwan — A Day in the Life". U.S. distribution for these projects has been secured with Golden TV, paving the way for a global audience to experience this diverse range of Taiwanese entertainment.
Organic Media Group's focus on cross-market IP, talent, and distribution strategies has made it an attractive partner for Asian and U.S. platforms. With offices in Taipei and Los Angeles, the production house is well-positioned to bring innovative content to both local and international markets.
