DRG, a NENT Studios company, is delighted to announce that it has established a new partnership with Dopamine, the independently operated Mexican studio. The new collaboration will see the two companies co-finance, develop and produce English-language scripted content, allowing DRG to significantly increase its support for UK producers in bringing their shows to the screen.

Richard Halliwell, CEO of DRG and managing director of NENT Studios UK, comments: “Dopamine is a truly exciting business within the rapidly developing scripted landscape in Latin America and we are thrilled to be working together to co-finance and co-create a new slate of English-language dramas. Dopamine is already producing high-quality Spanish-language content, and our collaboration will extend its global reach while providing DRG with access to its talented team, unique storytelling capabilities, and a greater understanding of the Latin American market. This partnership will further increase our investment in the UK production industry, and we look forward to announcing our first production together very soon.”

Fidela Navarro, CEO of Dopamine, adds: “From day one, Dopamine has been an ambitious business, keen to create content that works on a global level. This new alliance with DRG pairs us with experienced hands in the international market and helps strengthen our strategy. We share DRG’s passion for storytelling and look forward to a long and successful relationship, creating truly standout new English-language scripted content for broadcasters and streaming platforms worldwide.”

Dopamine was launched in 2017 and is behind the successful TV series Hernán (2019). This epic, ambitious, and big-budget Spanish-language historical drama tells the life-story of the conquistador Hernán Cortes.
