Element Pictures Group is a privately owned company headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. Founded in 2001 by producers Ed Guiney and Andrew Lowe, the company, with an estimated 60 employees, specializes in entertainment content rights. Functioning as an independent Irish film and television production company and drama supplier, it operates with additional regional offices in London and Belfast. In May 2022, Fremantle acquired a majority stake in Element Pictures, though the studio maintains creative autonomy. Its intellectual property portfolio and content catalog include Lenny Abrahamson’s Room, Sally Rooney’s television adaptations Normal People and Conversations with Friends, and projects from a creative partnership with Yorgos Lanthimos, such as The Lobster, The Favourite, Poor Things, and Kinds of Kindness. The company is recognized for director-driven storytelling and for securing Academy Award nominations and wins.
Element Pictures will produce "You Are Here," an eight-part drama series co-commissioned by the BBC and Starz, it was announced on August 6, 2026. The series, an adaptation of David Nicholls’ latest romance novel, will star Claire Foy and Matthew Macfadyen in lead roles, with Nicholls penning the script and Lenny Abrahamson set to direct. Previously, on June 25, 2026, the company received a commission to produce the second series of the BBC thriller "Nightsleeper." This new six-part installment, created and written by Nick Leather, will begin filming in Belfast later this year with support from Northern Ireland Screen and will feature action set on the Irish Sea.
