CreAsia Studio & TrueVisions Unveil Thai Adaptation Of ‘My Chef In Crime’

CreAsia Studio and Thailand’s TrueVisions Now have unveiled a Thai adaptation of crime drama My Chef in Crime.

The production is supported by the Department of Cultural Promotion, Ministry of Culture of Thailand and THACCA, and is slated to begin in February 2026.

The Thai adaptation draws from the original My Chef in Crime series commissioned by Indonesian streaming platform Vision+ and unveiled earlier this year at Hong Kong’s Filmart.

The new Thai adaptation will be an eight-part series helmed by Thai producer-writer Pornmanus Rattanavich (The Journey, Start-Up Thailand) and scriptwriters Nitikarn Pinmuangngarm, Rapeepimol Chaiyasena and Punnapat Sutthiwong.

Set to be available exclusively on TrueVisions Now in Q4 2026, the new series is developed and produced by Bangkok-based My Shot and CreAsia Studio (a Banijay Asia venture).

My Chef in Crime follows a forensic scientist-turned-chef who becomes the prime suspect in his rival chef’s mysterious death. He must clear his name, using his deep knowledge of food chemistry and forensic science, and teaming up with a fearless investigative police officer whose past intertwines with his own. Together, they tackle intriguing cases through culinary experiments and create mouth-watering dishes.

“CreAsia Studio continues to drive the next wave of creative expansion across Southeast Asia,” said Deepak Dhar, Founder & Group CEO, Banijay Asia, Endemol Shine India. “With non-scripted originals like Race to Space and scripted formats like My Chef in Crime now set in Thailand, we’re not only building local stories but also shaping a shared regional identity for premium Asian content. Every format we build is designed to spark collaboration and foster exchange across borders, and this marks another step in our journey to make Asia a key player in the global content landscape.”

mr. Ongard Prapakamol, Head of True Visions & Media Division, TrueVisions Group, said: “At TrueVisions, we continue to invest in compelling local storytelling. My Chef in Crime is an extraordinary concept that brings together two of Thailand’s biggest passions — food and drama — through an inventive crime narrative. We’re proud to collaborate with CreAsia Studio on this exciting journey.”

Jessica Kam, Executive Vice President & Business Head, CreAsia Studio added: “My Chef in Crime is the first scripted format developed and produced by CreAsia, proudly rooted in Southeast Asia. Thailand is brimming with exceptional storytellers and untapped creative brilliance. At CreAsia Studio, we remain committed to creating original formats infused with Asian cultural DNA, designed not only to resonate locally but also to captivate audiences globally.”
