The brand represents a company that develops and produces emotional, value-driven non-fiction content that is as entertaining as it is relevant. The company’s primary focus lies on equality and diversity in every aspect of the production business, both in front of and behind the camera. Tina Wagner, previously Producer and Executive Producer at RedSeven Entertainment, and Nina Etspüler, Co-Head of Entertainment at LEONINE Studios, are joining the management team and will lead the company under Tina Wagner's direction along with Martin Schneider, Odeon Entertainment’s long-standing managing director.
Tina Wagner, Managing Director of Madame Zheng Production, adds, "We want to create programs that appeal to everyone and don't limit ourselves to specific genres or target audiences. Our main focus is to develop entertaining, value-driven and glamorous formats that are visually innovative, recognizable and unique. The new company name reflects our brand essence. Madame Zheng, the name of a legendary pirate, symbolizes for us a strong unconventional woman who is very successful at what she does. And that's how we're starting out now - ready to conquer the TV landscape. I'm very excited to embark on this journey with Nina Etspüler, Martin Schneider and our great, professional team as part of LEONINE Studios."
Nina Etspüler, Co-Head of Entertainment at LEONINE Studios and Managing Director of Madame Zheng Production says: "Equality and diversity are part of the core values that guide LEONINE Studios' corporate strategy. I am very excited that they will now become even more visible and tangible with Madame Zheng. Tina Wagner has already produced many outstanding, innovative and successful television formats. Now, as Madame Zheng Production, we want to create television programs, that people talk about."
