During the event that celebrated Globos creative force and its unique ability to tell stories, the company also presented the products that make up the 2016 licensing catalogue, including telenovelas, miniseries, and films that were successful in Brazil.
The original production is based on the argument of Supermax - Globos new series, to debut in the second half of this year - a story of suspense and drama that mixes reality TV and fiction in an unprecedented way. With creative development by Oficina Burman, the adaptation for the Latin American and Hispanic audiences is signed by Daniel Burman, who was especially invited to lead the project's artistic creation and to cast international talents, such as Spanish actor Santiago Segura, Argentinian Cecilia Roth, and Brazilian Bruno Gagliasso, the leading actor on the telenovela Precious Pearl', winner of the 2014 International Emmy.

This project is an evolution of our long presence in the Latin American and Hispanic markets and the value of Globo's content to these countries' audiences has stimulated the development of this production. Supermax has a strong universal outline that will delight audiences worldwide. We are confident of expansion capability of our works, and especially, in Globo's collaboration to the development of the international market with this incentive to the creative environment , said Mr. Scalamandr .
To Daniel Burman, Globo Studios executive production strengthens this venture. I am amazed by the enormous production machinery we have at our disposal at Globo Studios. Supermax is an extraordinary experience that has the support, the force and talent of Globo to produce in Spanish. What we are experiencing today is a historical moment that has brought together great talents of the region at this incredible dream factory. We are all working together with the same spirit to tell a captivating story to the continent. I am fascinated by this project said the filmmaker.
