Cremo! is based on Spanish chef’s life story and is one of three dramas greenlit by the Telefónica-owned pay TV outfit
Movistar Plus has ordered three Spanish dramas, including one that is being coproduced with Catalan streamer 3Cat.
Cremo! has been inspired by chef Maria Nicolau’s eponymous book and is being produced by Morena Films, DeAPlaneta Fiction, 3Cat and Produccions Cremades, with Menna Fité directing.
The six-part series, which has started filming in Catalonia, is described as a “frenetic gastronomic dramedy” and tells the story of a woman fighting to achieve her dream in the male-dominated world of professional cookery.
Roger Danès, Alfred Pérez-Fargas, Amèlia Mora and Héctor Manteca are writers, with Ángela Cervantes among cast. The show is slated to launch in the second half of 2027 on Movistar Plus and 3Cat, which last week partnered with HBO Max in Spain on fellow drama Los Huérfanos.
Movistar Plus has also unveiled Ceremonia, which is being produced in collaboration with Charlie Pisco Producciones and Studio TF1’s Kubik Films.
The 6 x 30-minute series, which is based on an idea by Cristóbal Garrido and Adolfo Valor (Kings of the Night), is set in 1991 and humorously explores preparations for the opening ceremony of the Barcelona 1992 Olympic Games.
Valor co-directs with Paco Caballero (Invisible). Filming is taking place around Barcelona, including the Olympic Stadium, the Picornell swimming pools, the airport and Barceloneta beach. David Verdaguer and Paula Malia star.
Movistar Plus has also confirmed a fifth season of police thriller franchise The Hunt (aka La Caza), which is set on the Canary Island of La Gomera and is from Banijay-owned DLO Producciones.
La Caza: Gomera sees the franchise’s central trio of Megan Montaner, Félix Gómez and Silvia Alonso returning, with the story picking up on the discovery of three bodies after a devastating fire on the island.
The Hunt was created by Agustín Martínez and has previously spawned seasons set in Monteperdido, Tramuntana, Guadiana and Irati. The Monteperdido-set series, which was based on Martínez’s novel, was remade as Rivière-Perdue for TF1 in France.
