GREENLIGHT FOR THE VANISHING TRIANGLE
Sep 01, 2022
Ireland’s Virgin Media Television and AMC Network’s Sundance Now have commissioned Irish drama series The Vanishing Triangle (6 x 60 min), which will go into production later this year. Produced by Park Films (Ireland), Paper Plane Productions (US) and 87 Films (UK), The Vanishing Triangle is inspired by true events that shook Ireland in the 1990’s, when several women disappeared, never to be seen again.
India Mullen (Normal People, Brassic) stars as reporter Lisa Wallace, working in the face of prejudice and police incompetence to investigate the mysterious murder of her own mother nearly twenty years earlier. Allen Leech (Downton Abbey, Bohemian Rhapsody) plays David Burke, a detective helping Wallace with her case, but whose own struggles of coming to terms with his sexuality are a constant burden.
“Gathering together so many strong international partners to bring this incredibly powerful story to screen has been a real joy, and we can’t wait to see the results as we move into production over the coming months,” says Adam Barth, Director of Co-productions, Acquisitions, and Development at Eccho Rights.

Eccho Rights expands into animation with major Turkish titles from Grafi2000
Eccho Rights has acquired worldwide television and theatrical rights to two of Turkey’s most successful animated franchises, King Shakir (Kral Şakir) and Super Team (Süper Bir Takım), both produced by Grafi2000 Productions. The agreement marks a significant strategic expansion for Eccho Rights, extending its content portfolio beyond live-action drama.
King Shakir is Türkiye’s longest-running and most-watched animated series produced for Cartoon Network Turkey, spanning 400 episodes, four seasons and four theatrical feature films. Super Team is a superhero comedy series comprising 52 episodes and a feature film released this spring.
Varol Yaşaroğlu, creator and producer at Grafi2000, said: “Eccho Rights understands how to build genuine international audiences for Turkish content, and this partnership gives King Shakir and Super Team the global platform they deserve. We have always believed these characters, this humour and this heart can connect with children and families everywhere.”
Handan Özkubat, Director of Turkish Drama at Eccho Rights, commented: “Eccho Rights has always been driven by a single principle: finding the best content and connecting it with viewers around the world. King Shakir is a decade-long franchise with proven performance, and Super Team brings a second compelling universe from the same creative mind. This is exactly the kind of high-quality, distinctly Turkish storytelling we know how to champion globally.”
