The international distributor is raising the bar with its initiatives in the region, having signed several deals signed and ongoing negotiations for its coveted programming, and ambitious plans such as the launch of a dubbed catalog and a suite of FAST channels on various platforms to maximize access to its content.
Owner of one of the most notable TV catalogs in the industry, Cineflix Rights continues to expand its titles’ reach across multiple platforms and regions, and Latin America is no exception.
“2023 has started very strong for Cineflix Rights in Latin America,” Daniel Rodriguez, Sales Consultant, Latin America and Hispanic US, said to ttvnews. “We closed sales, including to Hola TV and Warner Bros/Discovery, and we have ongoing negotiations with other clients.”
Latin America is a “very important” market for the distributor, so much so that they are currently working to create “a special catalog of dubbed programming to increase our presence and reach in the region in the upcoming years,” the executive revealed.
And whether it’s Latin America, US Hispanic or any other international market, Cineflix Rights also makes a note to be present across multiple platforms. “From cinema, to TV, to Pay TV and to today’s OTT platforms, what everybody is looking for is good programming that can attract the right audience,” he explained.
“Cineflix Rights has always coordinated all windows and rights to maximize the exposure, success and return of investment for the programs in our catalog. We will also shortly be launching a suite of FAST Channels on various international platforms to maximize the potential for audiences to access our content,” he added.

As for now, the next step in the distributor’s expansion plans for the year is Miptv, where they will be present with an array of titles ranging from comedy to drama, factual, entertainment and more.
First on the list is Good Morning Chuck, a dramatic comedy series from St-Laurent TV and Connect3 Media, which follows Chuck, the beloved host of a morning show, who finds himself on the front page of all the newspapers and gossip magazines after a scandal involving his drug and alcohol addiction erupts.
Then there’s Tempting Fortune, from Voltage TV, a bold new format for the age of instant gratification. Twelve strangers are dropped in the heart of a vast, remote wilderness with an epic cash prize awaiting them… and a journey unlike any other. To keep the money, all they have to do is reach a designated finish line some 18-days trekking away, without spending it. But that will be easier said than done. As they make their way across tough and hostile terrain they’ll be met with tantalizing and enticing temptations.
Also on the factual side is Hitler’s Engineers: Building the Third Reich, from Like A Shot Entertainment. Charting the lives and careers of the Führer’s most prominent planners, designers, architects, and builders, Hitler’s Engineers: Building the Third Reich exposes the truth, revealing the active role these men played in shaping the war, fueling anti-Semitism, and convincing everyday Germans to join their sinister cause.
In addition, The Secret Life of the Auction House, from Curve Media, features exclusive access, riveting stories, surprising revelations, and jaw-dropping hammer prices, to go behind the scenes at one of Britain’s busiest auction houses and capture all the drama, passion, and charisma as antiques specialist Charles Hanson and a small army of experts examine, appraise, strategize, and sell to the highest bidder, all while making historic discoveries and keeping an eye out for fakes.
Lastly, rounding out the factual catalog is Designing Dreams from Imagination Television, which offers a rare glimpse inside New Zealand’s most spectacular homes as the country’s finest architects open the doors to their all-time favourite projects.
