Fox Entertainment Studios secured a vertical series deal with Hartbeat, giving the studio first look rights to create feature films and television series from Hartbeat's subsidiary brands, including Codeblack, Essence, and Revolt. Codeblack partnered with Holywater Tech to establish its own dedicated branded channel on the My Drama platform. Hartbeat's vertical series will launch on the platform before Fox Entertainment Global handles worldwide distribution.
