Channel 4 and Xbox partner on new drama series

UK broadcaster Channel 4 is partnering with Microsoft’s Xbox Entertainment Studios to launch a new drama series, called Humans. 

The series will share a broadcast window on Channel 4 in the UK and the Xbox platform in North America and is slated to launch in 2015.

Based on Swedish sci-fi drama Real Humans, the eight-part series (8×60’) will be produced by Kudos, with filming to begin in the UK this summer.
