Blue Ant takes more than 45 new and returning titles to MIPCOM – Blue Ant Media will take a slate of more than 45 new and returning titles to MIPCOM, spanning premium documentary, true crime, history, factual entertainment, science and natural history.

The Trial of Alec Baldwin, directed by Rory Kennedy, leads the offering. The two-hour documentary follows Baldwin through the personal and legal aftermath of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins’ fatal shooting on the set of Rust, including his involuntary manslaughter trial and the intense media attention around the case.

For Australian buyers and viewers, the slate is notable for the amount of locally connected factual production in the mix. WildBear Entertainment titles include Salvage Rescue Down Under, Boss Shark 3: Chasing Giants, Big Cats: Nine Lives, Legion of the Shark and a new season of Wildlife ER, while For the Love of Pets follows Australian animal welfare organisations and emergency hospitals.

Blue Ant is balancing new one-off documentaries with returnable franchises. Alongside the Baldwin film are Billion Dollar Hash Hunt, The Poison Seller and South America with Levison Wood, while returning brands include Killers: Caught on Camera, See No Evil, The Jury: Murder Trial, Northwoods Survival and Engineering From Above.

“We’re proud to bring buyers an impressive mix of ambitious new documentaries, distinctive factual series and proven returning franchises from premium production partners around the world. The slate reflects the depth and range of content Blue Ant can bring to market.”

Mark Bishop, Chief Monetization Officer, Blue Ant Rights & Streaming

Bishop said Blue Ant’s acquisition and sales teams work together from the outset, using buyer insight and territorial knowledge to give producers a commercial perspective and position the slate for international markets.

Documentary and limited series

The Trial of Alec Baldwin

(1 x 120’; Moxie Films, in association with Aperture Media Partners, Cross Creek Media, Indus Valley Media and Radiant Media Studios, & Zoltana Films) Directed by award-winning documentary filmmaker Rory Kennedy (Freefall: A Reckoning for Boeing, American Hollow, Last Days in Vietnam), The Trial of Alec Baldwin follows the actor through the personal and legal fallout from the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of Rust in 2021. Talented and adored, yet also flawed, politically outspoken, and prone to explosions of anger, the NYC-based Hollywood star becomes a lightning rod for online haters and a target for pushy paparazzi. With prosecutors weighing criminal charges, the events that unfold are driven less by the facts surrounding the case and more by who Alec Baldwin is — both as a man and as a public figure.

Billion Dollar Hash Hunt

(3 x 60’; Alibi) This true crime treasure hunt follows former smuggler Billy Greer, who moved hundreds of tons of hash for The Octopus, a powerful Dutch cartel. When an accident exposed the operation, DEA agent Rick Carter brought Billy down, seizing 54 tons of hash and sending him to prison for nearly 20 years. Now, Billy claims another 62 tons remain hidden in the St.

Lawrence Seaway – a stash potentially worth a billion dollars. Reunited decades later, former enemies Billy and Rick join forces to uncover what really happened to the missing hash. Blending firsthand confession, remarkable archive and a high-stakes present-day search, the series turns one of the world’s biggest smuggling stories into an extraordinary true-crime treasure hunt.

South America with Levison Wood

(4 x 60’; Blackmane Media) World-renowned explorer Levison Wood returns with his most ambitious journey yet: a four-month, 10,000-mile expedition through the spine of South America. Reunited with longtime friend Alberto Cáceres, Levison travels the length of the Andes – the world’s longest mountain range – on an epic journey through one of the planet’s most spectacular and challenging landscapes. Along the way, the pair face the physical demands of the expedition while encountering the people, cultures and communities that call the region home.

At its heart, the series is both an extraordinary adventure and a story of enduring friendship, as Levison and Alberto take on the journey of a lifetime.

The Poison Seller

(1 x 60’; Blue Ant Studios) In May 2023, police arrested Toronto man Kenneth Law and accused him of operating one of the deadliest online enterprises in modern history. Authorities alleged that Law had mailed 1,209 packages of lethal poison to individuals in 41 countries, many of whom were vulnerable people struggling with suicidal ideation. Filmed over three years, from Law’s arrest to his guilty plea in May 2026 to 14 counts of aiding suicide, The Poison Seller follows the case as it evolves from an international criminal investigation into a profound moral and legal reckoning.

Featuring reporting from Canada’s national paper, The Globe and Mail, never-before-heard excerpts from a telephone conversation with Law, and families searching for answers and justice, the film examines urgent questions about accountability, online regulation and what justice looks like when death itself can be delivered by mail.

Mafia: Behind the Code

(4 x 60’; Picasso Film) This series takes viewers inside some of the world’s most powerful and secretive criminal organisations, from the ’Ndrangheta and Yakuza to the Thieves-in-law and Triads. Filmmaker Max Serio meets former members and women who grew up inside mafia families and managed to escape, revealing the rules, codes and power structures that govern these hidden worlds. Moving beyond the myths of organised crime, the series offers rare firsthand insight into cultures built on silence, loyalty and control – and the lives of those who experienced them from the inside.

Rebbeca

(1 x 120’; Creature Films, Lionsgate, Lady & Bird Films) A cinematic journey into the life and music of Becky G, one of this generation’s most powerful voices. As she creates her most personal work yet, her debut Música Mexicana album, Becky reconnects with her roots, revisiting both cherished memories and defining moments that shaped her. The film traces her family’s powerful and moving journey through love, loss, pain, and healing, all against the backdrop of the most ambitious and high-stakes year of her career.

Hope in the Water Season 2

(3 x 60’; Intuitive Content) The second installment of this series follows farmers, fishers, chefs, scientists and entrepreneurs reimagining how we produce food while protecting the oceans and freshwater systems we depend on. From groundbreaking aquaculture and sustainable fishing practices to efforts restoring threatened species and fragile ecosystems, the series explores innovative solutions designed to feed a growing population without sacrificing the natural world. Featuring actress Shailene Woodley, award-winning chef and television host Andrew Zimmern, and Top Chef host Kristen Kish, Hope in the Water reveals how people and communities are creating a more sustainable future for both our food systems and the planet.

Crime

Live Stream Killer

(2 x 60’; Longwave Studios & Krempelwood) This two-part series examines the murder of 32-year-old Natalie McNally, killed in her Northern Ireland home in December 2022. Her boyfriend, Stephen McCullagh, appeared to have a powerful alibi: a six-hour YouTube livestream placing him elsewhere. Investigators later discovered the stream had been pre-recorded.

Through family testimony, evidence and the police investigation, this two-part series reconstructs how digital forensics exposed the deception and led to McCullagh’s conviction, while exploring the impact of the case on Natalie’s family and the disturbing role technology played at the heart of the crime.

Death in the Sun

(10 x 60’; Hello Mary Productions) This series explores murders committed far from home through the experiences of the victims and families left behind. Each episode follows a different case, combining archive and interviews to reconstruct the crime, the investigation and the role the destination played in events. Families share how they faced grief alongside the added challenges of distance, unfamiliar legal systems, cultural and language barriers, and financial strain.

This victim-led true crime series reveals how the search for sunshine, adventure or a new life abroad can end in devastating tragedy.

Killers: Caught on Camera Season 5

(10 x 60’; back2back) This access- driven series uncovers the shocking footage and psychological insights behind killers’ convictions. Through unseen CCTV, police body cam, and mobile footage, the series explores how everyday interactions can escalate into deadly violence. Each episode reveals the critical role digital forensics, cameras, and social media play in building evidence.

Each season restages a real murder trial word-for-word from original court transcripts, with actors bringing the case to life. Ordinary people are sworn in as jurors, tasked with reaching a verdict.

As the trial unfolds, their deliberations reveal not only the challenges of interpreting the law, but also the moral beliefs, personal experiences, and hidden biases that shape how justice is delivered. With gripping courtroom drama and unprecedented access to the jury room, the series asks profound questions about truth, fairness, and whether justice is ever truly served.

History

Pharaohs: Rise and Fall

(6 x 60’; Go Button Media) The pharaohs of ancient Egypt were more than rulers – they were gods on earth, commanding armies, priests, and architects to shape a civilization in their image. Grand pyramids, temples, and tombs were not just monuments, but instruments of power and propaganda. Over 3,000 years, leaders like Narmer, Mentuhotep, Thutmose II, and Akhenaten navigated droughts, rebellions, palace intrigue, and foreign threats, using religion, art, architecture, and the military to secure their authority.

This series explores how these superhuman figures maintained control over Egypt, and how, after millennia, their once-unstoppable dynasties ultimately crumbled, leaving behind enduring monuments and lessons in power, ambition, and legacy.

Beyond the Mask: The Story of Tutankhamun

(6 x 60’; At Land Productions) A fascinating six-part documentary series that tells the definitive story of the world’s most famous pharaoh through the 5,398 objects discovered alongside him in his tomb. Drawing on tomb discoverer Howard Carter’s excavation diaries, rare photographs, expert interviews, and stunning contemporary filming in Egypt, the series reveals the personal, political, and spiritual stories hidden within these treasures. Each episode explores a different aspect of the king’s life; his family, weapons and personal beliefs to his daily routines and the mysteries surrounding his mummy.

These remarkable objects reveal even more about the man behind the mask.

Bettany Hughes’s Gods and Myths: Artemis and Apollo

(2 x 60’; SandStone Global) Bettany Hughes journeys between Delos and Delphi, two of the most sacred sites of Ancient Greece, to explore the enduring myths of the divine twins Artemis and Apollo. Through their contrasting worlds of wildness and reason, intuition and intellect, Bettany reveals how the stories surrounding these powerful gods reflected the ancient world and continue to resonate today.

Bettany Hughes’s Lost Worlds: Dawn of Civilisations

(2 x 60’; SandStone Global) World-class historian Bettany Hughes journeys across modern-day Türkiye to uncover the origins of civilization itself. With exclusive access to newly discovered sites and artifacts – including the world’s first square room, the oldest known swords, and the first life-sized human sculptures – she explores the birth of agriculture, religion, trade, urban life, myths, and empire. From Göbeklitepe and Karahantepe to Ephesus, Cappadocia, Istanbul, and the snowy Caucasus mountains, this cinematic journey reveals how ancient Anatolia became a crossroads of human history – and helped shape the world we know today.

Revolutions that Changed History

(6 x 60’; Go Button Media) History often celebrates its great leaders, but life among the elite was rarely secure. Power was fragile, loyalty conditional, and survival never guaranteed. This series uncovers the gripping struggles that shaped the old world – battles fought between those determined to preserve tradition and those driven to overthrow it.

Through moments of shifting allegiance and contested authority, these stories reveal how ambition, resistance, and betrayal defined an era, exposing the human cost behind the rise and fall of power.

Cursed Histories Season 1 and Season 2

(12 x 60’; Go Button Media) You don’t have to believe in curses, but history is filled with them. This series explores people, places, and objects linked to devastating chains of misfortune. From Tutankhamen’s tomb and the Hope Diamond to James Dean’s Porsche, the Bermuda Triangle, and the Kennedy dynasty, each story traces how a single moment can unleash tragedy that echoes through generations.

Examining legend alongside historical record, the series asks whether these events are coincidence, consequence, or something more sinister, and why tales of the cursed continue to endure.

Secret Ops: Revealed

(8 x 60’; Blue Ant Studios) This series uncovers the hidden missions, covert technologies, and classified decisions that changed the course of modern history. Each episode investigates three connected operations from the 20th and 21st centuries – from shadow wars and assassinations to stealth aircraft, spy satellites, drug cartels, and high-risk rescues. Inside an operations-style briefing room, historians and intelligence specialists analyse declassified material, eyewitness accounts, news footage, and forensic clues to reconstruct how each secret was exposed, why it mattered, and how its consequences continue to shape the world today.

How to Survive History

(8 x 60’; Blue Ant Studios) This series explores the extraordinary true stories of people who survived some of history’s most catastrophic events. Each episode brings together multiple stories united by a single theme, from shipwrecks and wartime combat to volcanic eruptions and plane crashes, investigating the pivotal decisions, circumstances and lucky breaks that allowed people to live when so many others did not. Across moments of disaster, war and tragedy, the series reveals remarkable accounts of courage and resilience, and the instinct, determination and chance that can mean the difference between life and death.

Forgotten Frontlines

(6 x 60’; Go Button Media) In the years since the Allied victory, historians have chronicled both the heroism and plight of ground troops, navy and airmen – their wins, their losses, their sacrifices, and the slow movement of the righteous towards victory. These stories defined the greatest generation, but it’s not the whole story. From conspiracies to covert ops, some pieces of the narrative seem to have slipped through the cracks of our collective memory.

Now, we journey to fill in the gaps between those well-known, well-documented events as we shed light on the war efforts you’ve never even heard of.

To Kill a Dictator

(6 x 60’; Go Button Media) The assassination of a dictator can destabilise nations, ignite wars, or bring them to an end. This series examines the secret plots devised to end tyranny, revealing the covert operations, conspiracies, and individuals behind them. Driven by politics, fanaticism, and resistance, these stories uncover why dictators became targets, who planned their removal, and how rare moments of opportunity were engineered.

Going behind closed doors with rebels, revolutionaries, and intelligence operatives, the series explores what happens when history turns on a single, lethal decision.

Hitler’s Last Stand Season 6

(8 x 60’; Omnifilm Entertainment) On June 6th, 1944, the Allies finally landed troops in Normandy to open the western front. After the surprise of the D-Day landings and Allied advances, Nazi loyalists dig in. Determined to keep a merciless grip on the towns, strongholds and fortresses are built to defend the Third Reich.

These are the stories of desperate battles waged on the edge of defeat, not just for victory, but for survival.

Victoria and Albert: Love, Power and Control

(1 x 90’ or 1 x 60’; PA Productions) This special re-examines one of history’s most celebrated royal marriages, challenging the familiar image of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert as a golden couple. Drawing on historical evidence, from gaps in Victoria’s diaries to records of her pregnancies, the documentary investigates the balance of power within their relationship and asks whether Albert’s efforts to professionalise the monarchy masked a more complex dynamic of control and dependency. The film offers a provocative reassessment of a partnership that helped shape the image and future of the British monarchy.

Death of a Prince: The Tragedy of William of Gloucester

(1 x 90’ or 1 x 60’; ITN Productions) A royal high-flier, diplomat, and daredevil pilot, Prince William of Gloucester was once seen as one of the monarchy’s brightest hopes. But in 1972, the Queen’s charismatic cousin was killed when his plane crashed during an air race, cutting short a life of privilege, romance, and risk. Featuring rarely seen archive and first-hand accounts, this compelling documentary revisits the story of a royal who lived fast and died young – and explores whether his untimely death quietly reshaped the future of the modern monarchy.

The Forgotten Prince: Mystery of the Duke of Kent

(1 x 90’ or 1 x 60’; ITN Productions) In 1942, Prince George, Duke of Kent (the Queen’s uncle) was killed in an RAF crash in the Scottish Highlands, becoming the first royal to die on active service in centuries. Officially, it was a tragic accident. But rumours of secret missions, wartime diplomacy, scandal, and cover-up have never disappeared.

Was he involved in covert peace talks with Nazi Germany? Or did darker forces want him silenced? This documentary reopens one of the monarchy’s most enduring wartime mysteries, a royal death still surrounded by unanswered questions.

Windsor Fire: Minute By Minute

(1 x 90’ or 1 x 60’; ITN Productions) In November 1992, a small spark in a private chapel triggered a devastating fire at Windsor Castle, the Queen’s favourite home. As flames tore through one of Britain’s most iconic royal residences, firefighters raced to save priceless treasures and centuries of history. Told through minute-by-minute testimony from those who were there and exclusive ITN archive, this dramatic documentary reconstructs the night Windsor nearly burned, and reveals how the disaster, its restoration, and its cost became a defining moment for the modern monarchy.

The Royal Popularity List

(1 x 90’ or 1 x 60’; PA Productions) The Royal Popularity List reveals the results of a nationwide poll ranking the most popular members of the British Royal Family. Combining archive, expert analysis, royal commentators and public opinion, the documentary explores why some royals capture the public’s affection while others divide it. From defining personal moments to major public events and media coverage, the programme examines the personalities and stories behind the rankings – and what changing attitudes towards the Royal Family reveal about its relationship with the public today.

Nature, wildlife and environment

Life On the Edge

Blending cinematic natural history with scientific insight, local knowledge and ancient traditions, the series explores the remarkable relationships that define life along the continent’s coastlines – and how they are adapting to a planet in flux.

Across three episodes, scientists examine spectacular migrations, mass gatherings and bustling ‘wild cities’, from the savannahs and Amazon rainforest to the streets of New York and Paris.

Combining striking natural history with scientific insight, the series reveals what makes crowds so powerful across species – and how the patterns that shape the animal world can offer a new perspective on our own behaviour.

Search for the Biggest Mako

(1 x 60’; Lucky 8) Mako sharks are among the ocean’s fastest and most powerful predators, yet their numbers are declining across much of the world. In the South Pacific waters north of New Zealand, scientists believe the giant makos of the past may be returning. Underwater cinematographer Kina Scollay joins marine scientists Veronica Rotman and Clinton Duffy on an expedition to find them.

Through a series of close encounters with these elusive and highly intelligent sharks, this special investigates whether this remote region could be offering rare signs of recovery for these formidable ocean predators.

Boss Shark 3: Chasing Giants

(1 x 60’; WildBear Entertainment) for Love Nature. A spike in great white shark sightings in South Australia sends Dr. Riley Elliott on a mission to discover where these sharks have come from.

His search leads to New Zealand, where a fearsome sub-population of great whites prowls the waters. To tag and track them, Riley devises a daring new platform he calls Chum Island – a free-floating pontoon surrounded by frozen chum. Adrift in the open ocean, he puts himself at the centre of the experiment in a bold investigation into the movements of one of the planet’s most formidable predators.

Big Cats: Nine Lives

(3 x 60’; WildBear Entertainment) for Love Nature. Big Cats: Nine Lives follows lions, leopards and tigers through the defining stages of their lives, from vulnerable cubhood to power, conflict, reproduction and decline. Across the savannahs of Africa, the forests of India and the mountains of Asia, each species has evolved a different strategy to endure.

Yet all face the same universal challenges: to grow, compete, reproduce and survive. This evocative natural history series reveals the many lives lived by the world’s most iconic predators, and the extraordinary adaptations that help them overcome the odds.

Legion of the Shark

(3 x 60’; WildBear Entertainment) for Love Nature. For more than 400 million years, sharks have survived some of the greatest upheavals in Earth’s history. This series reimagines their story as an epic saga of survival, revealing how more than 500 species evolved extraordinary weapons, strategies and instincts to endure ice, fire and changing oceans.

Blending present-day behaviour – from migration and breeding to hunting and survival – with echoes of prehistoric seas, the series travels from Arctic ice to tropical reefs to reveal how these ancient predators continue to adapt as they face a new trial in a changing world.

Deep in the Heart 2: Texas Rivers

(1 x 96’; Fin and Fur Productions) for Love Nature. This second installment, narrated by Academy Award-nominated Texan, Ethan Hawke, offers an inspiring journey through the springs, creeks, rivers, and bays that define the Lone Star State. The film showcases the abundant diversity of wildlife that calls Texas home while confronting the critical water challenges facing a rapidly growing population.

This one-hour special takes audiences from the rugged Rio Grande to the thriving waters of the Sabine and Neches, encountering resilient otter families, strutting turkeys, and mysterious Alligator Snapping Turtles along the way.

Science and health

Engineering Evolved

(6 x 60’; Go Button Media) This series traces the evolution of transportation, revealing the innovations that transformed how the world moves.
