  • Paramount’s Lisa Kramer On Opening Up Second Windows For Premium Shows & Unveiling James Norton’s ‘King & Conqueror’
    deadline.com James Norton to show 'King & Conqueror' in London

    New Battle of Hastings period epic starring James Norton and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau will screen in the English capital.

    This isn't quite related to Star Trek, but...maybe it will be soon?

    >The U.S. distributor also has a sharp focus on selling premium drama into second windows. The push is focused on the Paramount+ originals, which have their exclusive moment in the sun on the streaming platform and Paramount+ branded blocks around the world, before coming to market, after a holdback, in the second window.

    >The buzzed upcoming NCIS spin-off Tony & Ziva is a good example, as are existing shows like Tulsa King and Lioness.

    >“We are looking at second windows, that’s part of our message coming into London,” Kramer says. “People have been talking about second windows for some time. I think the difference now is we have started selling second windows on our so-called premium series.”
