Cimarrón takes the lead of THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO in Latin America

Under the STUDIO’s global management, it will drive growth and coordinate all offices and production teams in the region

Cimarrón —one of the most prominent production companies in Latin America, integrated into THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO since 2023— is taking over leadership of the company’s operations in the region under the Studio’s global direction. Cimarrón will coordinate all offices and production teams across the continent to drive growth and strengthen the operational structure in Latin America.

The announcement coincides with the start of operations of Cimarrón (THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO) in Brazil, where the company will soon have its own office and team. The addition of this market, given the quality and scale of its audiovisual industry, reinforces the company’s presence throughout the region.

Marta Ezpeleta, CEO of THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO, said: “Cimarrón is one of our most strategic assets in Latin America. Its unique identity, top-tier relationships, and solid track record allow us to take a decisive step in our expansion across the region. With the experience of its team —led by Santiago López, Diego Robino, and Hernán Musaluppi— we are strengthening the structure needed to continue growing and to elevate the volume, excellence, and reach of our productions in a market where THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO already has a consolidated presence.”

This new stage also includes the addition of Andrés Gelós as creative producer for Latin America, complementing the portfolio of original projects. An Argentine producer, creator, screenwriter, and author, Andrés Gelós had already collaborated with Cimarrón and THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO as a writer on series created by Daniel Burman: Yosi, The Regretful Spy (Prime Video), Maledictions (Netflix), and So Far, So Good, soon to premiere on Flow. He is also the creator of titles such as Payback: una somos dos (Disney+ Latin America), Cumbia Ninja, and Kdabra (Fox).

In this new phase, Catalina Porto, director of THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO in Mexico and Colombia, will continue leading both markets as creative producer within Cimarrón’s structure.

The company will also boost the creation of non-fiction formats and content in Latin America, under the leadership of Amparo Castellano, global director of non-fiction at THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO. As part of this framework, Castellano will take on the supervision of this area within Cimarrón as part of her international responsibilities. One of the most recent projects in this field was the production of the TelevisaUnivisión adaptation of the survival reality show El Conquistador, a project that showcases the company’s ability to adapt successful international formats for Latin American audiences.

Cimarrón was founded in 2018 by producers Santiago López, Diego Robino, and Hernán Musaluppi, and quickly established itself as one of the most relevant production companies in Latin America, with internationally distributed films and series for platforms such as Prime Video, HBO Max, and Netflix. Since 2023, it has been part of THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO, a stage in which it has accelerated its growth and expanded its presence, adding a Colombia office to those in Argentina, Uruguay, and Mexico, and participating in numerous original and service productions for major studios.

They join returning cast members Pablo Derqui, Ramón Barea, Joan Carreras and Pablo Vázquez, all of whom featured in the first season.

The series continues under the direction of Borja Cobeaga and Ginesta Guindal, who alternate directing duties across episodes. Executive production is led by Alejandro Flórez, Javier Méndez and Diego San José for THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO, alongside Nahikari Ipiña and Borja Cobeaga for Sayaka Producciones.

Season two of ‘Su Majestad’ will be available exclusively on Prime Video as part of the Prime subscription.

Synopsis

Spain, 2026. Pilar has just been crowned queen and inherits not only the crown and carefully rehearsed greetings, but also a country where the monarchy faces widespread public discontent. Determined to become a “queen of the people”, she sets out to distance herself from the controversial legacy of her predecessor. But as she tries to reshape the institution, Pilar must navigate loyal allies such as Guillermo, uncover forbidden relationships, and find unexpected support in unlikely places, including Amanda, her father’s former lover. Between protocol and rebellion, she soon discovers that transforming the monarchy is far from simple, and that her own instincts may begin to resemble those of the very figure she vowed not to follow.

Mediapro Brands to lead Cabify sponsorship activations across football, leisure and culture

The sponsorship specialist agency of GRUP MEDIAPRO has been awarded the contract to manage Cabify’s sponsorship activation across five football clubs and its title partnership with the Movistar Arena in Madrid

Mediapro Brands, the sponsorship specialist agency of GRUP MEDIAPRO, has been selected to manage Cabify’s sponsorship activations across football, leisure and culture. With this appointment, the Spanish urban mobility company strengthens its commitment to connecting people with the key moments that bring cities to life, while Mediapro Brands will contribute its expertise to provide end-to-end support for the brand’s overall strategy.

The agreement includes joint creative and strategic advisory work across the activation of the various sponsorship assets.

In addition, it will oversee the full execution of all activations required by the brand across its sports and cultural sponsorship portfolio.

In football, Cabify maintains a strong presence through sponsorship agreements with Atlético de Madrid, Athletic Club, Valencia CF, CD Leganés and Real Racing Club. The brand positions football as a key emotional driver of urban life and a cultural platform that brings cities together. Its activation strategy focuses on connecting neighborhoods with stadiums, improving access for fans on matchdays, and enhancing the supporter experience before, during and after matches.

Alongside sport, Cabify is expanding its footprint in leisure and culture through partnerships with key venues such as the Movistar Arena, as well as cultural and live entertainment spaces including La Sala and Club Somontes in Madrid, among other music and event venues. This strategy is designed to improve mobility access to major cultural hubs while reinforcing Cabify’s role as a connector between people and the city’s cultural ecosystem.

The brand’s approach is rooted in its purpose of connecting people with the moments that define urban life. Cabify views sport, particularly football, alongside leisure and cultural experiences as key platforms for emotional engagement, social cohesion and urban activity. Its strategy is structured around three core pillars: connecting the city with sports and cultural venues, amplifying fan engagement and participation, and activating experiences that enhance collective moments across urban life.

Overon Aerial delivers aerial coverage across major first-quarter sporting events

GRUP MEDIAPRO’s drone division also covered Holy Week celebrations from multiple locations around the country

Overon Aerial, GRUP MEDIAPRO’s drone division, provided news and broadcast coverage of several of the most prominent cultural and sporting events held in Spain during the first quarter of the year. Among the most recent highlights was coverage for 13TV of the Holy Thursday procession in Zamora, the Good Friday procession in Valencia, and Seville’s iconic Madrugá celebrations.

Throughout the first months of 2026, Overon Aerial deployed multiple operational teams, operating a fleet of 20 aircraft managed by 16 pilots. These operations were supported by the company’s technical and logistics teams, who handled preparation, permit processing, and operational execution.

One of the most notable deployments was at the Zurich Seville Marathon. Overon Aerial contributed to the production of the international signal in February, delivering aerial footage for the event promoter. Four professional pilots operated four drones across several of the city’s most emblematic locations, including the start and finish line on Avenida del Cid, Plaza de España, María Luisa Park, Seville Cathedral, and La Giralda.

In addition, two Overon Aerial pilots operating two drones provided aerial footage of the exterior of Roig Arena (Valencia) for Movistar during the 2026 Copa del Rey basketball final, held in February.

For the first time in Liga F’s top division, drones were deployed at stadiums including San Mamés and Granada’s Nuevo Los Cármenes. In a pioneering move, Spain’s Women’s Professional Football League introduced skycam-style aerial coverage using C0-class drones, fully compliant with current aviation regulations, marking a first for top-tier professional football. Overon Aerial supported the rollout with a fleet of eight C0-class drones operated by eight specialized pilots trained for complex live broadcast operations.

The Movistar Madrid Half Marathon 2026, held on 22 March, also featured Overon Aerial, which produced the international signal for Movistar, delivering aerial coverage with two drones. Two professional pilots captured the start and finish of the race from Madrid’s iconic Plaza de Colón.

A two-pilot team operating two drones also travelled to the French town of Tardets-Sorholus, where Korrika 2026 got underway on 19 March. The team produced aerial footage of the race start for regional broadcaster ETB.

Liga FC Futures World U12 2026, one of the most prestigious youth football tournaments and a leading showcase for emerging talent, celebrated its 30th edition in Brunete (Madrid) from 25 to 29 March. As part of efforts to enhance the tournament’s audiovisual production, the organization entrusted Overon Aerial with producing the international signal. Using two drones and four specialized pilots, Overon Aerial delivered live aerial footage from within the field of play, replicating the capabilities of cable-cam or skycam systems.  

The 2026 Spanish Minivelocidad Cup, held at Circuito Kotarr (Burgos) on 4–5 April, also relied on GRUP MEDIAPRO for live audiovisual production. Overon Aerial deployed two stabilized drones and two FPV acrobatic drones operated by specialized pilots, delivering dynamic aerial coverage tailored to the demands of the competition.

Itzulia 2026, the Tour of the Basque Country and one of the most prestigious stage races on the WorldTour calendar, kicked off on 6 April with a 8.6-mile individual time trial held entirely in Bilbao. A two-pilot team operating two drones produced aerial coverage of the race start for Euskal Telebista.

‘Verde Uruguay’ spot released using virtual production

GRUP MEDIAPRO enables multiple environments to be recreated within a single space and condensed into a one-day shoot

Virtual production continues to transform the way audiovisual content is created, combining cutting-edge technology with the creativity of production teams. A clear example of this potential is the Verde Uruguay spot, produced for Oriental Films at the Reducto studio in Montevideo, directed by Diego Robino and developed in collaboration with creative agency Publicis Impetu Uruguay.

Thanks to virtual production technology and the creative work of the GRUP MEDIAPRO team, it was possible to recreate multiple environments and scenarios without the need to move between different shooting locations. In a single shooting day, between seven and eight distinct scenes were completed, optimizing time, resources and production workflows. The result demonstrates greater operational efficiency, high-quality imagery, and a level of creative flexibility that significantly expands narrative and visual possibilities.

Virtual production is thus consolidating its position as an innovative solution that is redefining industry standards in audiovisual production.
