Netflix is stepping up its Spanish production slate with five new projects in production for next year and two new projects set to launch in the coming months.

Netflix announced its line-up in Madrid, teasing the final season of its Spanish original series Cable Girls, which will launch on 14th February.

Also on the way this spring is a documentary centred on another hit Spanish series, Money Heist. La Casa de Papel, as it’s called in Spain, has been one of Netflix’s most-watched non-English-language originals, with millions watching it around the world. A new film documentary will chart the La Casa de Papel phenomenon, created by Alex Pina. The film will be released on 3rd April coinciding with the release of La Casa de Papel Part 4.

This autumn three other Spanish series will premiere: Someone Has to Die, created by Manolo Caro (The House of Flowers), The Mess You Leave Behind from Carlos Montero (Elite), and The Innocent (pictured) from Oriol Paulo (The invisible Guest).

Diego Ávalos, VP of original content, said: “We will continue to support creators and bring diverse stories. Our goal and commitment with the industry is key to position Spanish talent as a worldwide reference. The quality of our technicians and the excellence of our authors confirm that this goal is already part of our present.”

Here are the other projects announced that will premiere in 2021-2022:
