King of Hearts secures VRT backing Belgian Royalty EXCLUSIVE
VRT, the enterprising Flemish broadcaster, has stepped in to bring the ambitious historical coming-of-age drama series King of Hearts to the screen. This exciting project is helmed by the acclaimed creator Giles Coulier, whose production company, De Wereldvrede, has already carved out a reputation for producing high-quality, captivating content across Europe.
Coulier and his team have a track record of delivering acclaimed series, including the 2019 hit War of the Worlds and the Prix Europa winner Albatros. This history demonstrates their mastery in crafting stories that resonate with a wide audience and achieve significant commercial success.
The commissioning of King of Hearts taps directly into the growing appetite for sophisticated, continental royalty dramas. As series focused on royal narratives gain significant traction in terms of ratings and sales—mirroring the success of titles like Maxima—this new production promises to be a major event in television.
With the current development phase underway, King of Hearts is poised to capitalize on the proven demand for historical and royal storytelling. It signals a strong commitment by VRT to bringing compelling, high-production-value drama to its viewers, further cementing its position as a key player in the European content landscape.
