El Accidente sells across LATAM
Jun 18, 2018
Eccho Rights and DIRECTV have completed a deal to bring El Accidente to DIRECTV’s pay TV susbcription service and digital platforms all across Latin America. The hit series from Globomedia in Spain is set to air on DIRECTV’s “OnDIRECTV” channel later this year.
“With our channel’s history of acquiring the most acclaimed series from Spain, El Accidente just had to be on our channel. It was both a big hit in Spain and it created so much positive industry buzz,” says Willard Tressel, General Manager at OnDIRECTV. “We are thrilled to be bringing it to our viewers all across the LATAM region.”
El Accidente’s premiere on Telecinco in November 2017 was the most successful new drama launch for the Mediaset Espana network for over two years, and including VOD and catch-up viewing, the series was the most watched drama of the whole season.

Eccho Rights to represent The Trio
We are hugely excited to announce the latest title in our Western European Drama line-up: The Trio. Currently in production for SkyShowtime, the six-part romantic drama is based on the literary phenomenon Trion, by Swedish novelist Johanna Hedman. The best-selling book took the international publishing world by storm, and we are now looking forward to the television adaptation doing the same! The Trio is produced by SF Studios in association with Night Train Media, SkyShowtime, SVT and Film in Stockholm.
The series stars August Wittgenstein (The Crown), Felix Sandman (Quick Sand), Seth Manteus (Cherries) and Rebecka Harp.
The Trio is a story about love, sex and passion – a reflection of the meaning of life and the relentless passage of time.
When middle-aged Hugo is approached by the daughter of both of his childhood loves, he is thrown back twenty years in time. Hugo is about to embark on his first years at university and has moved to Stockholm to become a resident of the Stiller family. This is where he meets Thora, the daughter of the house. This is also where he meets August, Thora's constant companion and occasional lover.
This is just the beginning of a wonderful friendship, of a whirlwind love affair, of the realisation nothing will ever be the same again. This is also the reason why Hugo never truly moved on. Will he dare to reclaim everything he has lost?
