'Trust No One' and 'Line in the Sand' season two will premiere on Keshet 12 later this year and will be launched to market by Keshet International.
At a live event hosted for drama buyers as part of the London TV Screenings, Israeli producer and distributor Keshet International (KI) has showcased the first three titles on Keshet Broadcasting’s 100M NIS drama slate for its channel Keshet 12, namely A Body that Works (8×60’), Trust No One (9×60’), and the second season of Israel’s drama, Line in the Sand (8×60’).
KI’s scripted slate at London TV Screenings is headlined by Kuma Studios’ A Body that Works (Goof Shlishi), which has been selected to receive its international premiere in competition at Series Mania 2023.
The drama stars Rotem Sela and Levi as a childless couple who enlist the help of a surrogate, which also stars Lior Raz. The show is written by Shira Hadad and Dror Mishani and directed by Shay Capon. The eight-part relationship drama is currently premiering on Keshet 12.
Trust No One is a 9×60’ thriller co-created by the team behind Traitor and Valley of Tears – Ron Leshem, Amit Cohen and Daniel Amsel – and directed by Ofir Lobel.
Starring Yehuda Levi in the central role of Itamar, Trust No One is a story about leadership, about how lonely it gets at the top, and about the death of privacy.
Produced by Koda Communications, the modern-day Western series pulled record ratings in Israel and has travelled to a dozen territories, including Australia (Paramount+), Brazil (Globosat), Belgium (BeTV), Germany (RTL Crime), Indonesia (Mola TV), Italy (Mola TV), Spain (Filmin), and the U.K. (Mola TV).
Line in the Sand is a modern-day western centred on a team of vigilante cops who’ll do anything to clean up their town… including breaking the law.
Created by Yuval Yefet and Rotem Shamir and produced by Koda Communications, the first 8×60’ season ofLine in the Sand still retains its crown as Israel’s highest-rating drama following the Channel 2 split in 2017.
Speaking about the shows, Kelly Wright, KI’s MD of Distribution, said: “On the day that we officially launch Keshet 12’s A Body that Works to buyers in London, following its incredible debut in Israel, we are thrilled to be able to share details of the rest of Keshet’s slate of eight dramas for the global market. Trust No One has all the key ingredients you’ve come to expect from a high-stakes Israeli thriller – secrets, lies, and spies. And this new season of our successful crime drama Line in the Sand is even bigger, bolder, and more entertaining than the first. We’re confident this new crop of Keshet dramas will prove as popular as those that have come before them.
Commissioned by Keshet Broadcasting for Israel’s commercial channel, Trust No One and Line in the Sand S2 will premiere on Keshet 12 later this year and will be launched to market by Keshet International. The rest of Keshet 12’s 100M NIS slate of new dramas includes an as-yet Untitled Murder Mystery Series (W/T); relationship drama Lovesick (W/T); an Agatha Christie-style crime drama called Murder at the Dead Sea (W/T); Unconditional (W/T), an international thriller based on true events; and military thriller Untitled Legal Drama (W/T).
