Overview
- HBO Max announced Wednesday that it is developing a prestige drama inspired by the unresolved crimes in the remote Pyrenean hamlet of Tor.
- Writers Fran Araújo and Eduard Sola are attached as creators and lead writers, and filmmakers Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi will serve as executive producers through their Suma Content company.
- The production is being developed in collaboration with journalist-author Carles Porta and local partners, and the platform says the series will blend mystery, suspense and human drama.
- HBO Max and the creative team say the story will span decades and use Tor’s landscape and environments as central narrative elements, but the project is still in early development with no cast, production timetable or release date announced.
- The package pairs recent award-winning Spanish talent and could raise public interest and tough ethical choices about how to dramatize unresolved real crimes and how that impacts Tor’s small community.
