Netflix, the world's leading Internet entertainment service, began principal photography last week on its third announced Colombian original series, Distrito Salvaje. Created by Cristian Conti (7 Años, La Cara Oculta) and starring Juan Pablo Raba (Narcos, 7 Años, Los 33, Six); Cristina Umaña (Narcos, Sala de Urgencias, Todos Quieren con Marylin, Yo Amo a Paquita Gallego) and Camila Sodi (Luis Miguel La Serie, Señorita Pólvora, Camino A Marte), the 10-episode series will be available to Netflix members in the Americas in 2018.
