MasterChef, the reality cooking show on FOX, is going to lend its brand to a series of books that will be published by Bloomsbury. In a deal with Shine 360°, the group that manages the non-broadcast rights of the brand, Bloomsbury will be publishing, for a multi-year stretch, MasterChef books through its Absolute Press imprint.
The show, which is broadcast internationally, has aired for three seasons in the U.S. (and for more, in the U.K., where it originated and has been spun off multiple times). The show, Bloomsbury said, is produced in over 35 countries and, through the partnership, which is set to yield multiple branded titles globally, Bloomsbury will be publishing around the globe.
