15 Years, 15 Stories: Netflix Celebrates Its Anniversary in Mexico With New Mexican Productions

15 new titles are coming to Netflix in the coming months, including series, films, documentaries, and reality shows.

Netflix has produced and co-produced more than 200 titles in Mexico between 2016 and 2025, filming in more than 100 cities and generating an economic impact of more than 50 billion Mexican pesos in the country.

Mexico City, September 10, 2026.- Do you remember when you depended on the TV programming guide to decide what was on? In Mexico, that changed exactly 15 years ago. With the arrival of Netflix, the way people experienced television also changed: what to watch, when to watch it, and how to watch it. Binge-watching became a phenomenon, seasons could be finished in a single weekend, and new ways emerged to discover and enjoy stories from around the world.

And when it comes to milestones, 11 years ago, in 2015, Netflix premiered its first original production outside the United States: Club de Cuervos. It was a defining moment that marked the beginning of a new chapter for Mexican stories and opened the door to a decade of unforgettable characters, genres, and voices created in Mexico.

To celebrate its 15th anniversary in Mexico, Netflix is announcing a new slate of 15 Mexican productions coming soon: comedy, drama, and action series and films; documentaries exploring topics such as memory, identity, family, and everyday life; and unscripted formats that will put physical endurance, strategy, and the ability to deceive and betray to the test.

"Celebrating 15 years in Mexico fills us with pride, but above all, with infinite gratitude to the creative community and to the millions of Mexicans who enjoy our content every day," said Carolina Leconte, VP of Content for Mexico and Licensing for Latin America at Netflix. "The 15 productions we are announcing today celebrate our history in the country, but they are also an invitation to keep exploring: new genres, new voices, and new ways of telling the stories of who we are. What excites us most about Mexico is that there is still so much left to discover."

Talent and Industry: Growing with Mexico

Behind every "Are you still watching?", there is a vibrant creative ecosystem and a story of collaboration that has been growing alongside Mexico for more than a decade. These figures reflect the impact of the creative partnership between Netflix and the country from 2016 to 2025:

More than 50 billion Mexican pesos (equivalent to more than $2.7 billion) have been contributed to Mexico's GDP as a result of Netflix's investments and productions in the country.

More than 200 titles have been produced or co-produced in the country, in collaboration with more than 50 Mexican production companies.

More than 15,000 cast and crew members have participated in these productions, in addition to more than 20,000 extras and other daily hires.

More than 100 cities and towns across Mexico have served as filming locations for these productions.

Approximately 50% of filming locations have been outside Mexico City, bringing stories and audiovisual production to places such as Guadalajara, Puerto Escondido, San Miguel de Allende, Boca del Río, Hermosillo, and Tijuana.
