About

Run by Belinda Campbell and Alex Jones, we are a well-established and well-renowned hub of creativity, producing innovative and engaging shows, which resonate with critics and are adored by viewers across the world.

Launched in 2006, by multi award-winning writer Tony Jordan, captivating storytelling is our passion. From intriguing adaptations to pioneering originals, we’ve gained global reach and a reputation for producing compelling and much-loved dramas, working with established and emerging talent. Our diverse slate includes some of the UK’s most successful, original and recognised shows for major broadcasters, spanning a range of genres. In June 2021, multinational content creator and producer Asacha Media Group (A Fremantle company since 2024), acquired a controlling stake in Red Planet Pictures in a deal that will further the ambitions of both companies in producing high end, popular drama that resonates on a global stage.

Recent hit shows include BBC One crime drama, Death in Paradise, and its two successful spin-off series Beyond Paradise and Return to Paradise, the third series of Jane Austen’s Sanditon and literary thriller Our House. Plus, Dickensian, The Ark, Babs, The Passing Bells, and Sky One’s action-adventure, Hooten & The Lady. Our broad range of projects in development includes adaptations of The Harpy by Megan Hunter and The Exphoria Code, from The New York Times bestselling author, Antony Johnston.

With bold productions and diverse, creative collaboration at the heart of Red Planet Pictures, we also continue to discover, nurture and champion the next generation of voices through our writing initiative, The Red Planet Prize.

Red Planet Pictures is fully committed to providing an inclusive, safe and supportive working environment on all our shows and adopting the best industry safeguarding practices. We are determined to help inspire positive change by listening, engaging, and educating.
