MBC Group holds the basic cable and satellite free-TV-rights as well as non-exclusive worldwide basic cable and satellite free-TV-rights, limited to Arabic dubbed language only. Included in this deal are SVOD and AVOD rights on MBC’s platforms. At the same time MBC Group will act as the exclusive licensing agent for “Wissper” in the Middle East and North Africa region.

The adventures of the little girl will broadcast on MBC3 starting in July 2018, and the first roll out of the consumer product program will be in fall 2018 with Simba Toys Middle East.
