Jörg Winger to lead Dynamic Television's German arm as ZDF develops 'Conspiracy'
Jörg Winger, the co-creator of 'Deutschland 83', will serve as President for Dynamic Television's new German division. Simultaneously, German broadcaster ZDF has placed his co-created thriller 'Conspiracy' into development.
Winger's new executive role
Showrunner Jörg Winger has joined Dynamic Television as president of the company’s new German division, a move that installs a high-profile creator at the producer and distributor. Winger, best known as the co-creator of the acclaimed 2015 spy series Deutschland 83, will lead the development and production of German and international scripted content for Dynamic Television Germany.
The appointment signals a significant expansion into the German market for Dynamic Television. Winger’s remit will involve building out a slate of original series from the new German base, leveraging his track record of creating internationally successful dramas. His previous work has been central to elevating the profile of German-language series on the global stage.
The ZDF development deal
Concurrent with his new executive position, Winger's thriller series Conspiracy has officially entered development at German public broadcaster ZDF. Winger co-created the series with Marco Girnth. Details of the plot have not been disclosed, but the greenlight from a major domestic network like ZDF marks a strong start for the project.
The development deal and the executive appointment represent two parallel tracks for Winger. His role at Dynamic Television is focused on building a new scripted business unit, while his creative work continues with a key partner in the German broadcast landscape. This dual arrangement allows Winger to maintain his role as an active creator while also steering the strategic direction of Dynamic's German-language output.
