This holiday season, Amazon MGM Studios is set to release 'House of David,' a series with an epic production and global aspirations to match the breadth of its biblical source material. The Prime Video series will be the first to come out of Amazon's deal with The Wonder Project, a Christian-focused production company, for faith-based films and TV shows.
After playing to the coasts with shows that embraced progressive themes, Hollywood is leaning into broadly appealing fare. That shift has included a combination of undeniably faith-based, conservative-themed, and family-aimed entertainment, agents, producers, and industry experts say.
They’re heartland-curious,' Nick Barnes, UTA's Nashville-based head of its Heartland division, said of the streamers. 'It's, 'What's our Yellowstone?' I see cowboy boots every time I go to Los Angeles now.' The Kevin Costner-starring Western and soapy family drama has become one of TV's most popular scripted shows.
Studios head Jennifer Salke, who came on board in 2018, said she was looking for 'curated' overbroad shows and pledged to seek out projects with diverse talent.
