The Hunting Wives' Season 2 Renewal Negotiations
Imagine a TV show called 'The Hunting Wives' that's a big hit on Netflix in the US.
It's about rich people and secrets in Texas.
Now, the company that makes the show, Lionsgate, wants to make a second season with Netflix, but it's a bit tricky.
To make Season 2, Netflix needs to own the show everywhere, not just in the US.
So, they're working out a deal to buy the rights from other places that already have it.
It's like moving a toy from one store to another.
Both sides want it to happen because the show is popular.
Lionsgate is negotiating with Netflix for a second season renewal of 'The Hunting Wives' as a global original.
The show debuted on Netflix U.S. on July 21 and has been successful in the US.
International launches of the show have been paused due to the ongoing renewal negotiations.
Netflix needs global rights to the series for a second season.
The series has already been licensed in several international territories.
