Matt Christopher Book Catalogue
TV and Film License

    In our video age, with a multitude of channels to watch, every broadcaster is seeking content, as they say, “content is king.” Castle and Bishop Financial Services provided business advisory services, as well as invested its’ own venture capital with an established film production company, for the acquisition of the film licensing rights for The Matt Christopher book catalogue.

    Matt Christopher is the #1 Sports Series for kids. Teachers, parents and students of elementary and middle school have bought nearly 40 million copies worldwide of this on-going collection since 1954. Annual sales of over 500,000 copies continue till this day. With an exclusive deal with Little Brown Publishing for the entire Matt Christopher Library of over 150 titles it is the premier content opportunity to create wholesome family entertainment. 

    A three show production deal was recently sold to Nickelodeon Network, and the shows are waiting for a greenlight to proceed. For Castle and Bishop, however, risk is mitigated by producing an established brand and the crossover potential for a TV Series and Video On Demand. As part of the deal with the publisher, we have also retained all the merchandising rights for the productions. 

    Today’s youth spend so much time playing video games, that they are missing out on the life lessons which one learns from actually playing team sports. To name a few of these values, think of words like; dedication, perseverance, loyalty, honesty, integrity and teamwork. Values which are taught and learned in The Matt Christopher book catalogue.
