HBO Max Signs Overall Deal with Domingo Corral

HBO Max has signed a first-look deal with Movistar Plus+ alum Domingo Corral (The Anatomy of a Moment, Sirât) for exclusive TV services in Spain.

“I am delighted to have found a partner with whom I can continue producing the series I have always believed in,” Corral said. “HBO’s commitment to quality, boldness and originality has always inspired my approach to the art of storytelling.”

As part of the deal, Corral has already begun development on a series about the disappearance of El Nani. Set against the backdrop of Spain in the early 1980s, small-time thief Nani is wrongfully arrested for a fatal robbery and disappears, becoming the first missing person in the new Spanish democracy. The series is being written and directed by Alberto Rodríguez, alongside Rafael Cobos.

“We are so happy to partner with Domingo Corral, whose remarkable body of work has helped bring contemporary Spanish storytelling to the world stage,” said Sarah Aubrey, head of original content at HBO Max, who announced the news at Series Mania. “Domingo has long been a champion of bold, distinctive voices and a trusted collaborator across the creative community. We are honored to support this next chapter of his globally renowned work, and we look forward to the meaningful stories that will emerge from this new endeavor at HBO.”
