Exclusive: Banijay Rights has acquired global distribution rights to 72 Films’ four-part doc series on former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
The Channel 4 series, Boris (working title), chronicles the rise and fall of Johnson, who is one of the most divisive and perplexing characters in modern politics.
Boris is billed as “the definitive documentary series that reveals the events that shaped Alexander Boris De Pfeffel Johnson, his meteoric rise to power and his extraordinary premiership.”
Johnson, a Conservative and former London Mayor, became the UK’s Prime Minister in 2019. He won a huge majority in a snap election that year and took the UK out of the European Union a year later. However, he was deposed last year after several scandals, many of which related him breaking the Covid-19 rules his own party put in place.
Grabbing the rights to Boris is something of a coup for Banijay, as rival...

Before he was President of the United States, Donald J. Trump was the host of a reality show that revolved around the “fact” that he, Donald J. Trump, is the only person whose opinion matters.
I repeat this incredibly obvious detail of his resumé because even after everything he’s said and done these past several years, it’s still somehow under-appreciated in terms of just how effectively he’s transformed the presidency into a national 24/7 experience. It’s not just that he’s hawked his own line of steaks at press conferences, held government events at his self-titled hotels, called into “Fox & Friends” for impromptu therapy sessions, and inspired existential crises for all the networks trying to figure out how (or if) to air his rambling rallies. It’s that he knows how to get and keep people’s attention in such a way that envisioning life without his presence has become impossible.
