Movistar Plus+ Begins Filming Muertos S.L.

Muertos S.L., a new sitcom from Movistar Plus+ in collaboration with Contubernio, has begun shooting in Madrid.

The show depicts the day-to-day life at a family-owned funeral home after owner and founder Gonzalo Torregrosa passes away. His right-hand man doesn’t hesitate to take the reins.

Muertos S.L. is created and directed by Alberto Caballero, Araceli Álvarez de Sotomayor and Daniel Deorador and directed by Laura Caballero.

Carlos Areces leads the cast of the series, which includes Ascen López, Salva Reina, Aitziber Garmendia, Adriana Torrebejano, Diego Martín, Gerard B. Fillmore, Amaia Salamanca, Roque Ruiz, Lorea Intxausti, Manolo Cal, Bárbara Santa-Cruz, Lucía Quintana and Juan Miguel Bataller.

Alberto and Laura Caballero commented: “We really wanted to explore this theme, perhaps it’s a midlife crisis that puts you in touch with your own mortality. Additionally, we wanted to create a workplace comedy, which was one of the few contexts we hadn’t tackled yet.

“We are very excited about the opportunity to work with Movistar Plus+. It’s something we’ve wanted to do for a long time. We wanted to find a balance between the highest production quality and having fun during filming, and all of this has come together in Muertos S.L. We are very grateful to Movistar Plus+ for their trust and creative freedom.”
