Johnathan Young
Executive producer
May One
Young has just set up May One with Ioanina Pavel, based in Bucuresti. May One is a boutique drama company focusing on developing and producing premium drama series from Central Europe that aims to connect with the local audience, but that can also travel. May One is currently working with our partners at Mobra in post-production on Subteran, a 6x1hour series for Netflix. Young started as a drama director before becoming a producer. Johnathan produced more than 1000 hours of television in the United Kingdom, including the BAFTA nominated The Sinking Of The Laconia, a coproduction with Teamworx from Germany. Working with Teamworx was an eyeopener to the fantastic possibilities of collaboration and the excitement in exploring fresh perspectives. In 2014, Young was delighted to be offered the opportunity to join HBO Europe as VP of original production, overseeing drama development and production across the region. Young’s HBO executive producer credits include: The Berlinale nominated Spy/Master, Valea Muta, Hackerville, Tuff Money, Ruxx and from Romania; 2 seasons of Wataha (both Polish Eagle award winners); 2 seasons of Pakt and 2 seasons of The Thaw from Poland; Mamon (Czech Lion winner for best series) and The Winner from Czechia; The Informant and Aranyelet from Hungary and Success from Croatia. Young has an ongoing interest and commitment to working in Central Europe. He is especially keen to bring new voices and fresh stories to both a local and international audience in a popular and accessible form.
