Alongside today’s photos, Netflix released a new synopsis for the show: “The Joaquín Sorolla is much more than a public hospital in Valencia where lives are saved every day. Doctors and residents work their fingers to the bone in the frenetic pace of the emergency room, where tensions, emotions and even desire accelerate the hearts of a staff that lives increasingly on the edge. The arrival of a distinguished patient highlights the complicated situation of the public health system, lighting the fuse for what...

Netflix vowed to decarbonize its productions “across the globe” at Series Mania.
“That’s our main goal in the next couple of years,” said Claudia Augustinis, head of production at Netflix France. “We always say we want to entertain the world. But in order to do that, we need a world to entertain.”
While there is no standard formula that fits all productions, observed Netflix Spain’s Ester Velasco, hiring external vendors to help out producers is key. Be it on “Elite,” now in its sixth season, or rom-com “In Love All Over Again.”
“Our consultants break down the scripts and identify opportunities [for] decarbonizing productions,” she said, discussing its pilot initiative launched last year.
“If they identify that the talent comes from distant locations, they can ask: ‘Is there any chance to organize transportation by train, rather than plane?’ Or ‘We have seen that you are planning to rent cars.

Netflix has set June 18 for the worldwide release of Season 4 of its popular Spanish YA drama series Elite.
The series received an early fourth season renewal two months before Season 3 premiered, and it was renewed for Season 5 in February, ahead of the Season 4 launch.

He brings his three children with him: three teenagers too used to always get their own way,...
