Who we are
Sovrintell Studios is a forward-thinking television studio built for audiences who crave bold storytelling and fresh perspectives. We specialize in original scripted comedy and drama that challenge expectations, spotlight real life, and don’t shy away from the messy, hilarious, or heartfelt moments that define us.
What sets us apart?
We lead with truth, humor, and fearless creativity. Whether it’s sharp-witted dialogue, emotional depth, or stories that reflect underrepresented voices, our work is made to resonate—and made to last.
Based in Texas, Sovrintell brings a southern edge and cultural honesty to every production. We don’t follow formulas—we write our own rules. And we believe entertainment should not only reflect the world, but shift it.
