At a Prime Video Presents event, it also confirmed “Operación Triunfo 2027,” hosted by Chenoa, broadcast live daily, a rarity for a streaming service, plus the return of a Spanish version of “LOL: Si te ríes, pierdes” with Antonio Resines and Georgina Rodríguez (“I Am Georgina”), who debuts as a co-host. “LOL” will bow in Christmas, Resines said.

Among new shows are “Si los muertos hablaran,” with Carmen Machi (“La Mesías”), Hugo Silva (“Marbella”) and Maribel Verdú (“Pan’s Labyrinth,” “Y tu mamá también”), the series “Mataleón” and a film version of Alex Mírez’s Wattpad smash.   

Celebrating its 10th anniversary in Spain, Prime Video also confirmed Spain as its No. 1 non-English powerhouse, with its originals yielding more hits in Prime Video’s Global Non-English Top 10 than any other country in the world. 

It already confirmed this February that Prime Video Spain’s Spanish-language “Culpables” film franchise – “My Fault” (2023), “Your Fault” (2024) and “Our Fault” (2025), based on Mercedes Ron’s Wattpad novels –  had collectively shot past 100 million viewers. “Our Fault” featured as No. 1 in Prime Video’s Top 10 most-watched non-English language international originals over January 2025 to January 2026. All three films became No. 1 in more than 170 countries at launch, with over 90% of viewers coming from outside Spain. 

Movies such as “Apocalipsis Z: El principio del fin,” bowing 2024, and “Zeta,” made available March 26 this year, rank among the most-watched titles on the service internationally, it added. 

“10 years ago, we arrived in Spain and shortly after took our first steps producing movies and TV series here,” said Nicole Clemens, vice president and head of international originals at Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios. 

“Today, Spanish productions are not only delighting local audiences in Spain, but also feature prominently across our global non-English language rankings week after week and that is no coincidence: it is the result of backing local talent, authentic stories that work here first and then travel the world. With the new projects we are presenting today, like ‘Si los muertos hablaran’ or ‘Cuando solo quedemos nosotros,’ we continue to strengthen our already exceptional pipeline in Spain.”

New titles announced underscore a focus on action thrillers (“Apocalipsis Z: Un nuevo mundo,” “Zeta 2”); young adult, often sourced from Mercedes Ron, such as “Enfrentados: Marfil” and her “Dímelo” film trilogy; crime/true crime (“Si los muertos hablaran,” “Cuando solo quedemos nosotros” and “Mataleón”) and new auteur-driven projects, such as “Loba Negra,” the second season in the “La Reina Roja” franchise, directed by Koldo Serra, set for release Oct. 2.

Seeking to appeal to the whole of a now fractured market in Spain, as elsewhere, with multiple niches, Prime Video Spain also buys series for Spain.   “It’s important to have diversity,” Reverte said at Prime Video Presents.  

“We have spent a decade working side by side with production companies, distributors and broadcasters in Spain, and the relationship we have today with the industry is something we are very proud of,” said Manuel Reverte, head of content acquisition in Spain and Portugal. “Thanks to those partnerships we can offer customers films like ‘Haciendo Amigos,’ which will be the event of the summer in cinemas, series and innovative formats like ‘Citas,’ which this year combines a theatrical release with an exclusive series, the new season of ‘Pombo’ or Season 18 of ‘La que se avecina.’ Ultimately, everything revolves around giving our customers the best possible experience.”
