RTL Deutschland and Constantin Film have announced a significant extension of their long-term strategic partnership. This renewed agreement grants RTL Deutschland exclusive rights to almost all original and co-produced film and television content from Constantin Film. This encompasses both its free-to-air television channels and its streaming service, RTL+.
Inga Leschek, Chief Content Officer at RTL Deutschland, expressed enthusiasm: “Our collaboration with Constantin Film has stood for compelling stories and major cinematic experiences for years – across all screens. We’re excited to continue this success story and to offer our viewers exclusive access to the best German and international productions in the future.”
Oliver Berben, CEO of Constantin Film, highlighted the mutual benefits: “With the renewed partnership between RTL Deutschland and Constantin Film, we are not only securing exclusive content but also building a strong future for storytelling made in Europe. That’s what we call real content power.” He further emphasized the creative freedom afforded by the partnership: “Working with RTL Deutschland is special to me because it gives us the freedom to produce the films we truly want to make. Without the support of such a strong partner like RTL, this wouldn’t be possible.”
The agreement's success is multifaceted. Berben summarized: “The agreement is a win for everyone: RTL Deutschland gets exclusive access to our productions, we strengthen our long-term production business, and most importantly, viewers benefit from high-quality content that is entertaining and relevant.”
