Netflix has expanded its presence in Latin America with the launch of a new office in Buenos Aires, alongside the announcement of an extensive slate of Argentine films and series for 2026 and 2027. The move signals a continued investment in the country as a key production hub within the streamer’s global content strategy.
The new office, located in the Villa Crespo neighborhood, is designed to support Netflix’s growing volume of local productions and strengthen its operational infrastructure in Argentina. The company has been steadily increasing its footprint in the region over the past decade, and this latest expansion builds on its earlier efforts to establish long-term production capabilities and partnerships with local creators.
As part of the announcement, Netflix presented a diverse lineup of projects under its “Made in Argentina” banner, spanning feature films, scripted series, documentaries, and animation. The slate reflects a mix of established filmmakers and emerging voices, with a focus on stories rooted in local culture while targeting global audiences.
On the film side, the lineup includes a new project from Santiago Mitre, following the international success of Argentina, 1985. The slate also features A Good Therapist, starring Ricardo Darín, as well as Felicidades, directed by Álex de la Iglesia. Additional titles include Risa and the Wind Phone, which is set to debut on the platform after its theatrical run.
The television slate includes both returning series and new titles in development. Among the returning projects, The Eternaut is set to continue with a second season, while Envious will conclude with its final season, scheduled for release on April 29. In the Mud has also been renewed for a third season, continuing its run as part of Netflix’s regional programming.
New series announced as part of the slate include Moria, a biographical drama, and My Sad Dead, directed by Pablo Larraín. Other projects in development include Gordon, Tiempo al tiempo, and Crimen desorganizado, representing a range of genres including thriller, drama, and dark comedy.
Netflix is also expanding into new storytelling formats in Argentina. The company confirmed its first short-form series produced in the country, titled Carizzma, which will consist of ten episodes of approximately ten minutes each. The project reflects a broader push toward experimenting with format and audience engagement across different viewing habits.
The slate further includes a number of documentary and biographical titles. Among them are Emi Martínez: The Kid Who Stops Time, centered on the Argentine footballer, as well as projects focused on musician Fito Páez and the late actress Silvina Luna. These projects continue Netflix’s investment in real-life storytelling within the region.
In addition to live-action content, Netflix is also developing animation and IP-based projects. An animated adaptation of Mafalda is currently in production, alongside The Future is Ours, based on the work of author Philip K. Dick. These projects expand the company’s content offering across formats and genres.
The slate features collaborations with several prominent Argentine filmmakers, including Juan José Campanella, Pablo Trapero, and Pablo Fendrik, alongside newer voices. The combination reflects Netflix’s approach of balancing established industry talent with emerging creators.
Netflix entered the Latin American market in 2011 and began producing original content in Argentina in 2018. The company opened its first local office in the country in 2021, with the new Buenos Aires facility representing a further expansion of its operations.
With the launch of its new office and the announcement of a multi-format slate, Netflix continues to strengthen its production ecosystem in Argentina, positioning the country as an increasingly important center for content creation within its global network.
