Seven will produce a 12 part series featuring adventurer and filmmaker Tim Noonan for The Travel Channel (USA) titled Boy to Man.

The series sees Noonan embark ‘on a solo journey of self-discovery to worlds beyond his imagination to try and unlock the mysteries of what it means to be the ultimate man. With just his gear and cameras, Noonan first has to earn the tribe’s trust. Over the next few weeks, he is put through rituals, initiations and grueling tests to man-up and prove himself worthy of their respect. Throughout the series, Noonan travels the world, stopping in places such as Siberia to join the reindeer people, the Nenets, goes native learning how to climb coconut trees in Guinea Bissau and trains a golden eagle with Kazakh men in Mongolia.’

Therese Hegarty, Head of Production and Rights for Seven said: “We are delighted for Tim and the production team in the commissioning of this great series. This agreement with Travel Channel for Boy to Man continues to build on our strengths in the development and creation of original content for international markets.

“The commissioning of this series also underlines the opportunities for our 7Beyond joint venture in the United States market. The 7Beyond team developed and marketed the project in the US. Beyond Distribution will handle international sales of the series.”
