rebuilt to scale and a replica of the only surviving ship used in the production. Spanish national television is co producing the project. Speaking of epic series, in other news from the genre:
Romulus has been renewed for season 2 and
Warrior is getting the third season but on HBO Max instead Cinemax.
I bet it's going to be epic. I bet it's going to cost a bit to produce, especially if they're building replicas!
ReplyDeleteIt is cheaper to produce in Spain than in USA, but it will still be expensive, the good thing for them is that they can distribute in all the Latin countries and that brings money of course.
DeleteWell that sounds like an interesting series.
ReplyDeleteFour episodes ain't too much.
DeleteLooks interesting series!
ReplyDeleteHope it will be better than Hernan Cortes series from two years ago, that one was dreadful.
DeleteI have only watched a few of Spanish TV series and they didn't disappoint. Bet this one will be entertaining too.
ReplyDeleteShould be good and expensive too!
DeleteThis one sounds great!! Plus, there's just something about Spanish men that makes you want to watch. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd these two and some other in the cast are soooooo gorgeous!
DeleteMy husband's nationality is Cuban but his ethnicity is Spanish. No wonder I would swoon every time I would pass him in the office hallways. LOL
DeleteI myself love the Scandinavian type.
