US producer and director Greg Bonann (Baywatch) hopes to film a new TV drama called Southern Lakes (working title) in Queenstown next year.
The show is said to be a “sizzling hot drama” based round Queenstown’s tourism scene and will show off the surrounding beautiful landscape. As well as having “colourful” international characters, there will be three gorgeous adventurous sisters trying to rescue their grandfather’s plane charter business called Queenstown Air.
The show will be great news for New Zealand’s tourism business, as well as hopefully creating some new TV stars.
