Harriet the Spy will take her sleuthing adventures to Disney Channels worldwide, as the company scooped up the live-action TV movie from Toronto’s 9 Story Entertainment.

The deal with Disney, which will co-produce, was negotiated by 9 Story president and CEO Vince Commisso and EVP of business development Natalie Osborne, and was announced this weekend at MIPCOM. The co-production is the first of its kind for Disney Channel.

The movie, based on the popular kids’ book series by Louise Fitzhugh, was also sold to CBC. It follows high-schooler Harriet Welsch and her determination to become her class blogger, while competing against a popular nemesis. Executive producers are Nancy Steingard and Wendy Mos-Klein.

‘As our first global movie alliance, we are thrilled to be collaborating with 9 Story to bring a fresh new version of Harriet to our audience worldwide,’ commented Disney’s VP of worldwide programming strategy David Levine in a release.

Harriet goes into production on Nov. 2 in Toronto and Hamilton, with a delivery date set for April 2010. Disney has first window broadcast rights.

Also at MIPCOM, Shaftesbury Films has sold season one of its live-action series Connor Undercover to ABC TV Australia and Daro, for central and eastern Europe and English-speaking Africa.

The half hour comedy series follows a spy-buff teenager who’s ordinary life is transformed when the first daughter of a small island nation shows up to live with his family. Connor is co-produced by Shaftesbury and Heroic Film Company, and was commissioned by Family Channel.
