- William Levy renewed his development deal with Spain's Secuoya Studios and is set to star in and executive produce both a six-part thriller series and a romantic comedy feature film.
- The new thriller series, created by Carlos Portela and Roberto Serrano, is billed as blending action, suspense, and emotional drama centered on complex character relationships, with no plot details released.
- Levy returns to the romcom space with a lead role in the feature film, following prior turns in South Beach Love, Café con Aroma de Mujer, and Cinderelo.
- Levy and Secuoya previously teamed on ViX series Under a Volcano (Bajo un Volcán) and Camino a Arcadia, with their new series Bajo un Fuego set to premiere later this year.
- Secuoya's newly installed CCO José María Caro, who joined from HBO Max Spain a month after CEO Brendan Fitzgerald's exit, called Levy 'a key creative partner in the evolution of Secuoya Studios.'
- Their prior collaborations have traveled widely — Montecristo ran on Movistar Plus+, ViX, Globo, Imagine Media (Israel), ProTV, TV2 Media Group (Hungary), and BTV Media Group (Bulgaria), while Camino a Arcadia rolled out on SkyShowtime across more than 20 European territories.
Why it matters: Secuoya is locking in its proven flagship talent, William Levy, immediately after leadership turnover, with CCO José María Caro — recently poached from HBO Max Spain — making Levy a cornerstone of his new content strategy. Levy's track record of landing Secuoya shows across seven-plus international territories gives both parties a credible cross-border distribution pipeline to justify the renewed commitment.
