Iberscreenings:’Elite’s Miguel Bernardeau, ‘Ice Age’s’ Carlos Saldanha

The Disney-backed “How to Be a Carioca,” from “Ice Age” creator Carlos Saldanha, and “Allende, the Thousand Days,” an adventurous Chilean-Spanish pick-up from Spanish pubcaster RTVE, will both world premiere at Iberscreenings, catching new evolution on the Spain-Portugal-Latin America TV scene.

A comedy, showrun by Saldanha, consolidating his exploration of live action after Netflix’s 2021 “Invisible City,” “Carioca,” whose first episode will be screened at I&PI, is produced by the Star Original Productions label, bowing soon on Star+ in Latin America and on the Walt Disney Company’s streaming services globally, such as Disney+ Spain. 

An international co-production, “Allende, the Thousand Days” was originated by Chile’s Parox (“Invisible Heroes”), partnered by Spain’s Mediterráneo Media Entertainment and Argentina’s Aleph, Mente Colectiva and HD Argentina. A character focused chronicle of Allende’s three years in government before Pinochet’s 1973 military coup, the series has been acquired for broadcast by Chile’s TVN, RTVE in Spain and HD Argentina and Onza Distribution for international.    

For eight years, growth on the Ibero-American TV scene has been driven by global streamers. Netflix, for example, released one Latin American title in 2015, 73 in 2022: Amazon bowed 4 titles in 2018, 23 in 2022, according to an Omdia analysis. 

Now, however, production energies are more equally balanced between streamers, incumbents and new entrants. 

Of the 11 new titles premiering or sneak-peeked at Iberseries, Amazon Studios or Prime Video is the biggest player, involved in four, led by Secuoya Studios’ “Zorro,” with Bernardeau as the masked Mexican, set to unveil first look excerpts in Madrid. 

Yet Spain’s biggest players, broadcasters and pay TV, are re-energizing, re-setting VOD as a more central or the central part of their operations. 

Both with series at Iberseries, Movistar Plus+ and Atresmedia reset their VOD operations this summer, Atresmedia relaunching its high-profile streaming service, Atresplayer, on July 5, Movistar Plus+ bowing an amped up OTT basic offer a few weeks later, available to non-Movistar telephony clients.

RTVE Play, RTVE’s VOD platform, also provides a ready first window for much, though not all, of its international co-production. The size of RTVE series bowing on it has escalated, José Pastor, RTVE’s director of film and fiction, has noted. 

As streamers recalibrate production volume or downscale activity in smaller markets, more production companies are likely to explore international co-production, a route taken by both “Allende, The Thousand Days,” backed by broadcasters TVN in Chile, Spain’s RTVE and Argentina’s Channel 9, and “Godless João,” the latter hailed by Ventre Studio’s Paola Cosenza as one of the first independent Brazil-Portugal co-productions. 

Production in Spain and Latin America is mixing it up.
