Deadline understands that the deal is in the nine-figure range and Fox beat out a number of networks and studios to secure the chef’s kitchen expertise.

Fox Alternative Entertainment will serve as the production for the new company and it marks Fox’s first acquisition in the non-scripted space.

Ramsay will develop produce and distribute culinary and lifestyle programming for Fox, with whom he’s been in business with for many years with shows including MasterChef, MasterChef Junior and Hell’s Kitchen. He also has an upcoming cooking competition Next Level Chef for the broadcaster. It will also produce for AVOD service Tubi and international broadcasters.

Studio Ramsay Global, which has offices in L.A. and London, will serve as the exclusive production home for all new series featuring and/or produced by Ramsay, while his existing shows will continue to be produced by their respective production companies such as Endemol Shine North America. Studio Ramsay Chief Creative Officer Lisa Edwards will broaden her responsibilities with the newly formed company.
