About Matthew Cox

In October 2023 I launched my own solo-venture production company Drumroll, and I’m currently in production with NBCU’s Oxygen on my first-ever true crime format. Previously for the last three years, I was a freelance EP at Naked (a Fremantle label), where most recently I was the showrunner of NBCU’s bold new dating reality Couple To Throuple, which premiered on Peacock in February 2024 to great reviews. In the past my speciality has been a mix of factual entertainment and formatted docs (e.g. C4’s recent celebrity reality competition Trash Monsters: What's Your Waste Size? & TLC's Call In The Cheapskates), Entertainment shows including appeals & events (e.g. ITV’s Soccer Aid, The Queen’s 90th Birthday Celebrations & Text Santa for which I directed a Downton Abbey special), Award Ceremony shows (ITV’s Pride of Britain Awards), talent competitions with live studio (ITV’s Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Superstar) and reality shows (Peacock's Couple To Throuple, C4’s Playing It Straight, When Women Rule The World & Unanimous). Throughout my career I've held various development exec positions (September Films, Twenty Twenty & Naked) and have vast experience of creating & shaping new formats. I co-developed and delivered BBC3's location-based game show pilot Don’t Scream hosted by Yung Filly. In 2017, I made the A&E pilot Ghost, which featured people hosting events as holograms after their death, and more recently the TLC format My DNA Mystery; the pilot for which secured a series commission. I also co-created ITV2’s dating format Secret Crush which was first made as a series of shorts in the US for Bravo.com and went to play for two cycles of 20 episodes on ITV2. Although Drumroll has a slate which is in various stages of development, I am still very much an EP and Showrunner for hire. I am London-based, and in the process of applying for an O-1 visa.
