A note signed Warner Bros officially confirms the working future of Amadeus: from next autumn the presenter will land on Canale Nove. The rumors have been circulating for some time, but now the official confirmation leaves no more doubts. After the farewell (or goodbye) to the RaiAmadeus has decided to tighten a agreement lasting 4 years with Warner Bros. Discovery. But, in detail, what will the host do in his new work adventure? Let’s see it.
Amadeus signs with Discovery: here’s what he will do
“Amadeus, one of the most loved faces on Italian television, showman, host, DJ, undisputed protagonist for years of pre-evening, access prime time and prime time, record-breaking artistic director for his Sanremo Festivals, will join the team of talents from Warner Bros. Discovery, one of the world’s leading media companies“, says the Note official published by the group.
A new adventure for the host which, from what the note from Warner Bors. Discoverywill also have a very important role from an organizational and network development point of view. “Thanks to this agreement, which will last 4 years, Amadeus will debut as early as next autumn on Nove, Warner Bros. Discovery’s flagship generalist channel, and will actively collaborate with senior management in the development of new entertainment formats for all platforms of the group“.
But obviously that’s not all, because given the results obtained over the years as a presenter, ad Amadeus will also be entrusted running flagship programs. “During the television season, Amadeus will host one prime time access program and two prime time programs on the Nine (one in autumn and the other in spring). The details of the projects in which he will be the protagonist will be announced in the coming months“, announces the group’s note.
What will Discovery do next?
The acquisition of Amadeus He therefore appears to be a real player in the team coup for the group Warner Bros. Discovery which, one step at a time, is becoming more and more protagonist also in Italy with the channel Nine and other 9 free channels and 5 pay channels.
Between unique formats and hosts and prominent people expertly stolen from the strongest networks on the Italian scene, the channel Nine could become a really very strong competitor. It is therefore likely that, in its next steps, Discovery will try to gain more and more relevance in the television landscape, and in this Amadeus will definitely have an important role.
Added to this is another indiscretion: it would in fact seem that the Rai has allowed the deadline for renewal to expire of the contract on the format of Usual Unknowns, the well-known program that has been hosted by Amadeus in recent years. If that were true, it might be Amadeus to take back the reins, but this time on the Nine.
Will Rai really let this successful format slip away after having already let go of its host? All that remains is to wait to find out what will happen.
