ROUGHCUT TV develops BREN RENTS for FOX ENTERTAINMENT
A US format of the BAFTA award-winning UK comedy Stath Lets Flats
London, 15th December, 2020: Roughcut TV, award-winning producers of People Just Do Nothing and the triple BAFTA award-winning cult UK comedy Stath Lets Flats, are developing Bren Rents, a US format of Stath Lets Flats for FOX ENTERTAINMENT written by Joe Mande.
BAFTA award winning actor, creator and writer of Stath Lets Flats Jamie Demetriou, will executive produce alongside Ash Atalla, Roughcut Managing Director.
Joe Mande, writer and producer on The Good Place and Joe Mande’s Award-Winning Comedy Special streaming on Netflix said,
“Stath Lets Flats is a very special television programme. I feel so lucky to be working with Jamie and Ash on this project. I cannot wait to make the American version of their delightful show and then immediately take all the credit.”
A man ill-equipped to sell real estate, sells real estate. There has never been a realtor quite like anxiety-ridden Bren in the US adaptation of Roughcut’s critically acclaimed comedy, Stath Lets Flats.
Ash Atalla, Executive Producer & Managing Director Roughcut said, “Real estate of course fills us with happiness but mostly envy. Bren will change that. When you see how bad his properties are, you’ll never want to move again. It’s the opposite of Selling Sunset and we can’t wait to develop it with our partners at Fox’
Jamie Demetriou, Executive Producer and creator, writer and star of Stath Lets Flats added, “We’re thrilled to have Joe Mande’s brilliant brain on this project. It was such a relief to find out from him that properties are in fact funny in the US as well. Thank you, Joe Mande. Thank you, apartments and houses. Thank you, America”.
