Streaming giant Netflix has green-lit four new entirely Australian-made productions, with Delta Goodrem to star in upcoming film Love Is In The Air.
Premium, according to Luu, ranges from kids’ content through to productions such as, Netflix’s new outback epic series announced today which features “cowboys, helicopters, guns and cows.”Other newly announced productions includea feature film about a “sassy seaplane pilot” played by Delta Goodrem. The film will be produced by Jaggi Entertainment and Kylie Pascoe.
Luu recently celebrated three years at Netflix, joining from the ABC in 2020 where she was an executive producer for drama, comedy and Indigenous content. The ABC’s chief content officer, Chris Oliver-Taylor recently went the other way, Luu saying she “doesn’t see much of a difference” between the two businesses.
“Speaking at both as someone who works for Netflix, but also speaking as an Australian, I’m really motivated by like proving that it works, proving to the audience that you come to Netflix for our Australian shows.”Luu is unfazed by the recent commentary on the streaming sector, with strikes across both the actors and writers unions in the United States having shut down major overseas productions on Australian shores.
