EXCLUSIVE: La Peste and Olympo actress Melina Matthews has signed with France’s Elev8on Management for European representation.

Elev8on has also signed Ana Dumitrascu, who plays the lead role in Diary of a Chambermaid, which is in competition at Directors’ Fortnight; and Indonesian actress Asmara Abigail, who is in Jeremias Nyangoen’s Black Coffee, a Critics Week competitor.

Matthews, who was born in Spain to Welsh and French parents and speaks four languages, has “exactly the kind of cross-European profile” Elev8on is “building the agency around,” company co-founder Florent Lamy told Deadline.

“For us, this signing is meaningful because it marks our first concrete step into representing high-end European talent, complementing the U.S. roster we’ve been managing in Europe for the past few years.”

Matthews acted in Spanish pic Silencio, Pedro Almodóvar’s The Room Next Door, Netflix’s Olympo, La Peste Season 2 at Movistar Plus+ and BBC drama Thirteen alongside Jodie Comer. She has been in Cannes in Rodrigo Sorogoyen’s El Ser Querido, which plays in Official Selection and got a seven-minute ovation on Sunday, appearing alongside Javier Bardem and Marina Foïs. Goodfellas is handling international sales. She will next be seen in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon.

“We’ve had a very strong presence at Cannes this year, specifically anchoring our new expansion: driving talent management directly within Europe,” said Lamy. “We’re building the European equivalent of Range Media Partners, focusing heavily on high-potential, multilingual European talents who fit perfectly into today’s globalized industry where borders no longer exist.”
