Overview
- The regional government signed a sponsorship with Pelicula WASP AIE, a joint venture of Spain’s Wanda Vision and Allen’s Gravier Production.
- The project is provisionally titled “Wasp 2026,” with Allen set to write, direct and produce.
- The contract requires at least 15% of the film to be shot in the Madrid region and to depict the city in a recognisable way.
- Payments are split into three instalments tied to the film’s international trajectory, with one tranche released after a world premiere at a major festival such as the Berlinale.
- Officials frame the deal as a tourism initiative, expecting the release to raise Madrid’s global profile.
