Lionsgate has acquired the American and British distribution rights to the Hunyadi series
Lionsgate has acquired the distribution rights for the Hungarian historical series Hunyadi in the US and UK. The series, based on Mór Bán's novels, had a budget exceeding 25 billion HUF and received significant state support. Despite its controversial political ties, it has been well-received, achieving high viewership and winning multiple awards. The complete ten-episode season was previously available on Netflix and has been sold to various international broadcasters. This acquisition marks a significant milestone for Hungarian productions, as foreign-language series rarely reach these markets.
