Netflix´s new series, Kaos, which was spotted filming several scenes in spots around Malaga, will premiere on the streaming platform on August 29, 2024.
Created by the scriptwriter behind ´End of the F****** World´, Kaos is a reimagining of the myths of ancient Greek mythology, juxtaposed with today´s modern world. In Netflix´s 20-second teaser trailer, Jeff Goldblum is shown as a tracksuit-clad Zeus, and aerial shots of Malaga are shown intercut with shots of chaos and jubilation in the streets.
The story follows a set of mortals, Zeus himself, Dionysus—Zeus´s favourite son—and a group of mortals as they try to navigate a world ruled by fallible, and at times, flippant, gods. Dark humour, themes of social unrest, and questioning of the divine will play out with a star-studded cast in the upcoming Netflix series.
Produced by Sister Production, the creators of HBO´s Chernobyl, and filmed by Malaga-based Fresco Film, Kaos will bring scenes shot in Marbella, Malaga, and Velez to screens worldwide. The series will feature actors such as Ozark´s Janet McTeer, Fear the Walking Dead´s Cliff Curtis, and 1917´s Nabhaan Rizwan.
Filming locations
Netflix tried to maintain a low profile during their filming, however, stars like Jeff Goldblum and Nabhaan Rizwan were quickly spotted by many during the production. Some scenes were on-location as early as 2021, featuring Malaga´s Calle Parras adorned with murals portraying Poseidon and other iconography synonymous with Greek myth, which were quickly painted over to conceal the production days after filming ended.
After an initial week on site, the production was filmed over two months around Spain, including a Madrid mansion and scenes filmed in Cadiz, Sevilla, and Valencia. Film company Fresco Film did the shooting on location at spots around Costa del Sol, including panoramic shots from Los Montes, Marbella, Malaga, and Velez.
