Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. (LGFA) and Vivendi S.A.'s (VIV.FR) Universal Music Group signed a multi-year deal to develop scripted and unscripted television projects drawn from Universal Music's labels, artists and music.

Universal Music also will produce soundtrack albums for the projects.

In a deal unveiled last week, Universal Music Publishing Group will represent Lions Gate's music publishing properties, including musical compositions and scores.

Lions Gate A shares were recently up 1.8% at $23.41.
