Cineflix Rights announces international sales for Anna Pigeon

Ten–Episode First Season to premiere on UKTV’s U&Drama

Cineflix Rights has announced a raft of international deals for USA Network and Bell Media’s hit crime procedural Anna Pigeon ahead of MIPCOM 2026. The first episode of the series will premiere in the UK on UKTV’s U&Drama on October 6. The ten-part series has been sold to UKTV, SBS (Belgium), Disney+ (Portugal), CANAL+ (Czech Republic and Slovakia), TET (Latvia), and Pickbox (Balkans).

Based on the New York Times best-selling novels by Nevada Barr, Anna Pigeon (10×60’) debuted as the number one new US cable scripted series premiere in 2026 and the highest-rated USA Network original scripted series premiere in nearly eight years. The series has earned praise from critics, with the Los Angeles Times calling it “highly watchable,” Good Housekeeping describing it as “a five-star detective drama,” and Screen Rant hailing it as “a smash hit.”

Anna Pigeon (Tracy Spiridakos, Chicago PD) is a national park ranger with a devastating past. A former city slicker and stage manager, Anna tries to outrun her demons by solving crimes that take place within the park grounds, no matter who or what gets in her way. With a team of passionate park rangers at her side, Anna works hard to keep the park a pristine and safe environment for everyone to enjoy. But when Anna has a run-in with one of the largest landowners in Montana, she discovers not everyone has the same goals as she does. As Anna tries to outrun her past and protect the park, she learns the greatest threat in the park isn’t the wildlife or ever-changing weather—it’s the dark underbelly of humanity.

Anna Pigeon is produced by Cineflix and SEVEN24 Films for USA Network in association with Bell Media. Cineflix Rights is the exclusive worldwide distribution partner excluding the US.

Sandra Piha, SVP, Sales, Pan-Regional, UK, Eire, and Nordics, Cineflix Rights, who brokered the UKTV deal, said: “Anna Pigeon has been a huge hit in North America, with viewers really taking Anna to their hearts. We’re delighted to be rolling out the series to international audiences starting with these sales to the UK, Europe, the Baltics, and the Balkans, with more to be announced shortly.”

The deal with SBS (Belgium) was closed by Chris Bluett, SVP, Sales, Asia Pacific and Benelux; Disney+ (Portugal) was closed by Sabrina Ayala, Sales Consultant, Iberia, Italy, French-speaking Europe, and French Canada; and Lucy Rawson, VP, Sales, German-speaking Europe, CEEMEA, and Southern Mediterranean brokered the deals with CANAL+ (Czech Republic and Slovakia), TET (Latvia), and Pickbox (Balkans).
