Netflix plans to add a lot more Spanish-language content to its service, including at least one series by a former Univision exec.
The streaming giant, which currently has many Telemundo, Univision and Televisa shows and series on its platform, announced it will do a major expansion in Mexico, showcasing more than 50 projects created by Mexican talent – already in different stages of production – in 2019 and 2020.
As part of its efforts, Netflix announced it will also open Mexico City office later this year.
The streaming giant confirmed it will add four local films to its slate over the next two years, as well as non-fiction projects and several Mexican original series, including one executive produced by Camila Jiménez-Villa and Silvana Aguirre through their recently launched company The Immigrant.
