Netflix to bring back to life the charismatic trafficker and politician Pablo Escobar in a Netflix Original Series Narcos.
Narcos is fast becoming one of the most talked about and anticipated new shows of 2015 with Netflix due to start streaming the 10 episode series on 28 August 2015.
An all-new take on the amazing story of the Medellin Cartel, once the worlds most ambitious and violent trafficking organization, Narcos reunites the creators of the ultimate Brazilian cop action and political film, Elite Squad: Moura (Elysium) and Padilha (Robocop).
The ten episode initial season of Narcos was filmed in Colombia.
“Jose and Wagner together created one of the most sophisticated and chilling portraits of criminality and official corruption ever in their Elite Squad movies,” said Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos. “Their version of the Escobar saga will be like nothing ever seen before.”
“Our idea is to tell the true story of how cocaine became such a huge problem in the U.S. and Europe and how it all started here in Medellin,” said Padilha, now preparing Narcos in Colombia.
“We are so thrilled to be working with Jose and Eric on this gripping and timeless story,” said Katie OConnell, Chief Executive Officer, Gaumont International Television. “Netflix is the perfect partner to launch this series and we are happy to be working once again with the amazing team there.”
