In February 2020, Wolf Entertainment signed one of the largest deals in television history. The nine-figure deal, which spans broadcast and streaming, keeps the company and its high-profile projects at Universal Television, the company's long-time home, for an additional five years.[2]
Originally named Wolf Films, the company was rebranded to Wolf Entertainment in 2019.[3] As of July 2021, the company had produced around 1900 hours of television and received 94 Emmy nominations.
In 2021, Wolf Entertainment became part of the conversation around depictions of policing in the media. In a conversation with fellow Wolf Entertainment star Julian McMahon on Wolf Entertainment's YouTube page, Chicago P.D. star Jason Beghe explained "I think we feel a certain sense of responsibility to address these issues, which is fun and challenging. Thankfully we have some good writers and good advisers."[4]
Streaming
In 2022, Wolf Entertainment will dip its toes into the streaming world with its new series On Call. The half-hour drama series, which will follow a veteran and rookie police officer in Long Beach, California, was picked up by Amazon's Freevee. The series is a joint production with ATTN: and Universal Television.[5]
Additionally, Wolf premiered a scripted podcast called "Hunted" starring Parker Posey in the fall of 2019.[7] The podcast, which was touted as the first of many upcoming podcasts from the production company, was executive produced by the company's Head of Digital, Elliot Wolf.[8]
