A new Spanish thriller starring Luis Tosar as Salvador, a man who discovers his daughter, played by Elite’s Claudia Salas, has joined a neo-nazi group. Filming has been underway since September 2024, and the series will likely be released on Netflix sometime in 2025. Here’s everything we know about Salvador on Netflix.
Salvador is an upcoming Spanish Netflix Original thriller series created by Aitor Gabilondo and directed by Daniel Calparsoro. Alea Media produces the series with Aitor Gabilondo as the executive producer.
Salvador creator Aitor Gabilondo had the following to say about the series
“We present Salvador in a socio-cultural context where many extremist debates that seemed to have been overcome are being revived. Luis Tosar embodies the bewilderment of the reasons that lead many young people to feel attracted to a far-right group in the face of his own daughter’s drift, and he wonders what has happened and what he can do. This project tackles issues such as immigration, extremism, crime, and lack of future. Salvador also fulfills my long-standing desire to work with Daniel Calparsoro, whom I have known since his short film WC and whose stark yet compassionate view fits so well with the story of Salvador. To complete the dream, I will have the opportunity to work with Luis Tosar, the most fascinating sad energy in Spanish cinema.”

Netflix has provided a synopsis for Salvador:
