Rakuten TV in the U.K. has launched a dedicated FAST channel for The Walking Dead Universe via a partnership with AMC Global Media.

Netflix and AMC Global Media have clinched a multiyear, global licensing deal for The Walking Dead universe, covering co-exclusive rights to the original and its spinoffs.

AMC Global Media has secured the U.S. streaming rights to the Catherine Zeta-Jones-led thriller Kill Jackie, co-produced by Steel Springs Pictures and Fremantle.

More than 70% of European audiences are watching FAST channels daily or several times a week, according to new research unveiled by Rakuten TV at SXSW London.
