The Apple TV+ Israeli spy thriller “Tehran” took the Best Drama Series award at the 49th International Emmy Awards on Tuesday.
“Tehran” is a spy thriller from “Fauda” writer Moshe Zonder that tells the thrilling story of a Mossad agent who goes deep undercover on a dangerous mission in Tehran that places her and everyone around her in dire jeopardy.
The series is created by Moshe Zonder (“Fauda”), Dana Eden and Maor Kohn, and co-created and directed by Daniel Syrkin. Zonder also serves as writer alongside co-creator Omri Shenhar. The series is executive produced by Moshe Zonder, Dana Eden, Shula Spiegel, Alon Aranya, Julien Leroux, Peter Emerson and Eldad Koblenz; and produced by Donna and Shula Productions in association with Paper Plane Productions, with the participation of Cineflix Rights and Cosmote TV.
The awards, which were hosted this year by “Insecure” star Yvonne Orji, recognize non-English-language television programs as well as those originally aired outside the United States.
“Tehran,” originally broadcast on Kan in Israel and on Apple TV+ internationally, competed against India’s “Araya,” Chile’s “El Presidente” and the United Kingdom’s “There She Goes.”
The series’ co-creator and executive producer Dana Eden said in her acceptance speech that the prize represents an enormous honor.
