ABC Signature Studios has signed a new multi-year first-look deal with Eugenio Derbez, and Ben Odell’s 3Pas Studios (Acapulco).

The deal will see 3Pas Studios developing and producing English-language projects for ABC Signature across all platforms.

Jonnie Davis, president of ABC Signature said in a statement:

“Eugenio and Ben transcend culture through their diverse and inclusive storytelling, driven by their deep connection to talent and source material from Latin America.  We couldn’t be more excited to shepherd their next wave of brilliant and culture-defining English language projects at the studio.”

3Pas has been creating shows for multiple studios and platforms in both English and Spanish for years, including the Hulu/Star Original film “The Valet”.  The company also has a first-look film deal with Lionsgate.

Eugenio Derbez also said in a statement:

“For actors, writers, directors, and creators like myself, Disney has long been a leader in inclusive and diverse storytelling.  We are so grateful for this incredible opportunity to lift up new, diverse voices with ABC Signature,”

Ben Odell added:

“At the heart of our stories we bring people together and celebrate our common humanity.  We have a treasure trove of incredibly diverse stories, talent, and creators across the United States and Latin America. We can’t wait to start the party with ABC Signature and their fantastic team.”
