Apple has reportedly signed a deal with podcast producer Futuro Studios to help it fund the development and production of future podcasts, Bloomberg <\/em>reports<\/a>. In return for its Futuro deal, Apple gets first refusal on the rights to turn any resulting podcasts into a film or TV show. It has already produced TV shows based on the podcasts WeCrashed <\/em>and The Shrink Next Door.<\/em><\/p>\n

Long-form podcasts have emerged as a rich source of inspiration for TV shows at a time when streaming services are more desperate than ever for original content. Hulu\u2019s The Dropout<\/em> was based on an ABC News podcast of the same name, and the streaming service is also reportedly adapting the podcast Wind of Change<\/em> into a TV show<\/a>.<\/p>\n
