The aim is to create direct pathways for co-development, production and broader collaboration under the Australia/UK Co-production treaty.
Partner with Australia positions Australian creatives and businesses as collaborative partners of choice on world-class productions, capitalising on the strong cultural and economic alignment between Australia and the UK, supporting official and unofficial co-productions, location shooting, post-production partnerships and broader cultural export.
The announcement builds on existing collaboration between the two nations, with Australia/UK Official Co-productions including the upcoming series Careless, the feature films Prima Facie and FING!, and previous documentaries Shane, The Australian Dream and David Attenborough’s Life in Colour. Titles such as Last Seen (FKA The Dispatcher) and Breakers are currently being produced in Australia.
