“We’re so happy to create a program with the express goal of
putting people to sleep. This show has actually been a dream of
mine for a while,” said Maximum Effort co-founder Ryan Reynolds.
“Story time is a nighttime staple in our home and is a daily
reminder of the power of storytelling. We’re extremely grateful to
our always amazing partners at Autodesk for helping bring this show
to life with their design and make platform.”
“Bedtime Stories with Ryan is a magical mix of joy and
relaxation,” said Pamela Duckworth, head of Fubo Studios at Fubo.
“These may be legendary stories, but Ryan’s voice and personality
amplify each one, turning them into classics for a new generation.
Bedtime Stories with Ryan is the perfect original show to kick off
Maximum Effort Channel’s programming slate of maximum comfort.”
Autodesk, a leader in design and make software, has signed on as
the show’s official Imagination Sponsor. Bedtime Stories with Ryan
will be designed and made using Autodesk’s platform, which helps
creatives and innovators - as well as architects, engineers,
students and more - to make anything.
“Autodesk software, used by moviemakers, engineers, and
architects to design and make the world around us, also helps the
next generation bring their powerful imaginations to life. That’s
why we’re thrilled to be the official sponsor of Bedtime Stories
with Ryan – a series which inspires these same imaginations,” said
Dara Treseder, chief marketing officer at Autodesk. “As part of
this work, we are proud to offer students and educators free
educational access to our software, helping bright young minds
transform their most creative dreams into reality, and one day,
literally build a better world.”
Bedtime Stories with Ryan is a 15 episode series directed by
Vincent Peone. The show is produced by Maximum Effort and Fubo in
partnership with ArtClass and Loon Productions, music by Sleeping
At Last. This is the first original show announcement for Maximum
Effort Channel, a channel that will be home to original and classic
TV and movies – as well as some surprising content breaks - made
for maximum comfort.
Maximum Effort Channel will be available on Fubo and additional
streaming platforms to be announced. More programming details will
be announced in the coming days.
The linear channel is part of a multi-year partnership with Fubo
and Maximum Effort that includes an exclusive first-look for
unscripted TV series as well as a blind scripted deal. Maximum
Effort, a production company co-founded by Ryan Reynolds and George
Dewey in 2018, has been granted creative control over the channel's
content. Since launching, Reynolds’ banner has an impressive
creative track record which includes the Deadpool movies, Free Guy,
The Adam Project and the unscripted show Welcome to Wrexham.
