Madrid is once again the backdrop for an ambitious television production, as filming for “La Agencia,” the Spanish adaptation of the French mega-hit “Call My Agent!,” is in full swing. With a stellar cast and a production team determined to capture both the glamour and the grit of the entertainment industry, “La Agencia” is poised to become one of Spain’s most talked-about television events of the year.
The series takes place in the offices of Rebecca Talent, one of the most important artistic representative agencies in the country, where the four agents – Gabi (Javier Gutiérrez), Andrea (Manuela Velasco), Matías (Carlos Bardem) and Maribel (Fiorella Faltoyano) – along with their attendees and the artists who parade there every day, generate a unique, competitive and exciting universe, but struggle to combine with their complicated personal and family lives.

Netflix ha publicado el primer teaser tráiler de “Respira”, el primer drama hospitalario de Netflix en España, creado por Carlos Montero.
El Joaquín Sorolla es mucho más que un hospital público de Valencia donde cada día se salvan vidas.

La llegada de una distinguida paciente pone de manifiesto la complicada situación de la sanidad pública, encendiendo la mecha de lo que se convertirá en una huelga drástica y sin precedentes.
Esta nueva serie de ficción de ocho episodios está protagonizada por Najwa Nimri, Aitana Sánchez Gijón, Blanca Suárez, Manu Ríos, Borja Luna y Alfonso Bassave. Completan el reparto Ana Rayo, Macarena de Rueda, Blanca Martínez, Abril Zamora,...
