After a successful experience working together for the TV series The Five (featured on the picture), RED Production Company, a Studiocanal subsidiary and Harlan Coben decided to team up once again. The international bestselling author launches his own independent production company in partnership with RED. Harlan Coben will be joint CEO alongside RED founder Nicola Shindler with Studiocanal handling international distribution of the original content.

Final Twist Productions, which will be based in the U.S., will develop contemporary, thrilling drama for American broadcast networks.

The new company is already in development on a major returning drama series, Six Years, adapted from Coben’s bestselling novel of the same name.

 Harlan Coben will present at MIP-TV (April 4 to 7, 2016, in Cannes, France) the 10-part drama series The Five, also based on one of his novels, to be screened soon on Canal+ in France and on Sky One in the UK. “Nicola and I had such a terrific experience creating The Five for Sky One. I couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve made”, said Harlan Coben. “Final Twist Productions will take our American-British teamwork to the next level by bringing Nicola’s daring new outlook and producing style to the USA.”
