The Hollywood Reporter is set to debut a Spanish-language edition in partnership with Tasty Media.
As part of a multiyear licensing deal, The Hollywood Reporter en Español will offer original content highlighting the best in Ibero-American cinema and television for Spanish-speaking readers.
“Expanding our best-in-class editorial to markets outside the United States has been a major priority for the THR brand,” said Shirley Halperin, co-editor-in-chief at The Hollywood Reporter. “We’re excited to have The Hollywood Reporter en Español join us in the endeavor of delivering impactful entertainment news to Spanish-speaking readers throughout the Americas, Europe and beyond.”
“We are thrilled to expand The Hollywood Reporter‘s footprint across Latin America and Spain,” added Alison Smith-Pleiser, vice president international, THR. “This initiative allows us to celebrate and highlight the rich tapestry of Hispanic culture through original content while delivering culturally relevant journalism to Spanish speaking audiences. We are excited to extend THR’s global reach through our online platform and new Spanish edition, connecting with new audiences in a meaningful way.”
This collaboration with Tasty Media — which aims to put a spotlight on Hispanic culture — furthers THR’s mission to expand globally and expand awareness with influential audiences worldwide.
“For over a century, Spain and Latin America have enriched the world with their visual artistry, impactful film festivals and iconic cultural moments. Today, Spanish-speaking markets represent a significant segment of the industry and play a crucial role in global media and art. We are proud to uphold and continue the legacy of one of the greatest journalism institutions of all time,” said Diego Ortiz, CEO of Tasty Media.
