Granada Studios Australia has rebranded and will emerge as ITV Studios Australia in January next year.

The name change recognises the Australian brand’s new global partnership with ITV.

Leonie Lowe, Managing Director, said: "Being a part of an internationally successful and recognizable business like ITV Studios, is one of the many reasons why we are an attractive production partner in the region.

“This is an important step in continuing to grow our business and be even more closely aligned with our parent company; and also continues our work to establish new ITV Studios' formats in this territory."

ITV Studios Australia will relaunch in 2013 with series two of Mad as Hell and new offices at Fox Studios.
