Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment (CSSE) has set up the scripted production company Halcyon Television, to be led by industry veteran David Ellender.
CSSE will launch the scripted television studio with Ellender as CEO upon the closing of the previously announced Sonar asset acquisition. The closing of the 1,300 title television and film library, scripted development portfolio and the existing TV series drama production is expected to take place in the near future.
Ellender had been serving as CEO of Sonar. Prior to this, he was CEO at Slingshot Global Media and served as CEO of FremantleMedia Enterprises.
