Richard Gadd, the creator of the hit Netflix limited series “Baby Reindeer,” based on real events from the comedian’s life, became a surprise sensation at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards despite the $170 million defamation lawsuit the show is currently facing.

The multi-year pact comes fresh off the series' six Emmy wins, including Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series

Netflix's CO-CEO Ted Sarandos announced the news, off the back of Gadd's Emmy wins Sunday night, at The Royal Television Society London Convention.

Baby Reindeer creator and star Richard Gadd is set to return to Netflix for a new show after signing a multi-year deal with the streamer.

The controversial Netflix series about an aspiring comedian's increasingly sinister encounters with an eccentric woman, has won an Emmy Award.

Netflix saw a British invasion this year — with four of its 10 biggest shows globally in the first half of 2024 coming from the U.K.: “Fool Me Once,” the Emmy-winning “Baby Reindeer,” “The Gentlemen” and “One Day.

The seven-episode limited series is based on Gadd’s award-winning and hit Edinburgh Fringe one-man play. The televised version follows struggling comedian Donny Dunn’s (Gadd) warped relationship with his female stalker and the impact it has on him as he is ultimately forced to face a deeply buried trauma.

Fiona Harvey's comments come as the streaming channel’s CEO, Ted Sarandon, 60, revealed Netflix has inked a first-look deal for future projects with the 35-year old Scots comedian.
