About
"The universe is made up of stories, not atoms."
Muriel Rukeyser, 1968
Element 8 Entertainment was forged from a deep commitment to believing that great stories have universal appeal. Great films and series begin on the page. To foster this belief, we foster an environment where writers and creators are protected and supported to develop their vision and to be bold.
We are based in Los Angeles and Tokyo. We have projects spanning from Belgium to the U.K., Canada to Australia, and Japan back to the U.S.
Our projects
Miss Scarlet & The Duke
Created and written by Rachael New and now airing on PBS Masterpiece and UKTV’s Alibi, this popular series has built an international audience as it wraps a Victorian era mystery and romance around one of the great female characters — Eliza Scarlet, London’s first female detective, played by Kate Phillips. Opposite her as Scotland Yard inspector William “ Duke” Wellington is Stuart Martin. Eliza is a woman determined to have it all in this smart, witty and deeply engrossing series.
Clean Sweep
Written by Gary Tieche, Clean Sweep is a breathtaking drama about a seemingly ordinary Irish housewife, Shelly Mohan, the wife of a Guarda detective and mother of three, who wants nothing more than to hold her family together. However, long hidden secrets emerge, and she commits a murder to bury her past. The pressure builds as her husband is leading the investigation in the case. Starring Charlene McKenna and Barry Ward, the series is a co-production with ShinAwiL and Incendo.
