The Italian Global Series returns for its second edition this year. According to Deadline Hollywood, the event will unite television creators and actors across two Italian coastal destinations.
Happy Valley creator Sally Wainwright is among the confirmed guests. The festival runs from July 3 to 6 in Rimini and July 7 to 10 in Riccione. Doctor Foster's Bertie Carvel and German-Turkish actor Serkan Çayoğlu are also confirmed attendees.
The Italian Global Series celebrates drama series from across the globe and has become a major gathering for television professionals. By splitting between Rimini and Riccione, the festival brings international television to Italy's Adriatic coast.
Wainwright has created some of British television's most watched dramas. Happy Valley became a cultural phenomenon in the UK and abroad. Her participation signals the festival's commitment to featuring serious drama creators.
Fans of prestige television are watching the lineup closely, with social media activity building around the prospect of seeing creators and actors in person. The festival will include masterclasses, panel discussions, and networking opportunities for industry professionals and television enthusiasts.
More guest announcements are expected in the coming weeks.
