NETFLIX STARTS PRODUCTION TODAY OF ITS NEW SERIES "HIGH SEAS" IN MADRID AND SHOWS ITS FIRST LOOK

A historical drama starred by Alejandra Onieva, Ivana Baquero and Jon Kortajarena

Madrid, Spain, October 29th 2018 - Netflix, the world's leading internet entertainment service, has started production of its next original Spanish series, High Seas.

The cast is led by Alejandra Onieva, Ivana Baquero and Jon Kortajarena. The series also includes José Sacristán, Eloy Azorín, Félix Gómez, Tamar Novas, Natalia Rodríguez, Manuela Vellés, Chiqui Fernández, Begoña Vargas, Eduardo Blanco, Antonio Morris, Laura Prats, Ignacio Montes, Daniel Lundh, Jorge Varandela, Luis Bermejo, Pepe Ocio, Ben Temple, Brais Yanek, among others.

High Seas is an eight-episode mystery-drama series set in the 1940s in a luxury transatlantic ship. In order to recreate the ship, several sets with a surface of more than 2.700m2 have been built. The production team has done research on the time period for several months in order to portray this decade with the utmost realism.

Carlos Bodelón, art director of the series stated: "The set of High Seas is one of the most ambitious projects we have ever faced. The final result is impressive: we have been able to recreate the luxury and the glamour of a cruise ship from that decade. We have designed the furniture and added elements from the 1940s, including the navigation bridge mechanisms (helm, telegraph, etc), that are authentic"

The series will premiere globally in 2019. It is produced by Bambú Producciones, created by Ramón Campos and Gema R. Neira and directed by Carlos Sedes who is also the executive producer along with Teresa Fernández Valdés and Ramón Campos.

Synopsis

A magnificent transatlantic ship full of passengers, travelling from Europe to South America in search of a better future. Two sisters, Carolina (Alejandra Onieva) and Eva (Ivana Baquero), as different as they are inseparable. A handsome officer, Nicolás Sala (Jon Kortajarena), a man that fate has put in the wrong place. A mystery to be solved: the murder of a passenger whose name does not appear in the passenger list and who no one remembers. Love, intrigues and many lies... in a ship that hides a story in each one of its cabins and a dark secret deep inside. There is only one clear thing: The murderer will not be able to leave the ship.
