But that's not so unusual this early in the game. 19, with a total run of 10 episodes, but if you've already marathoned each and every one, then it's time to ask: will Distrito Salvaje return for Season 2?Īt the moment, Netflix hasn't issued an official confirmation for Distrito Salvaje Season 2.

Former Narcos star Juan Pablo Raba has a new gig playing Jhon Jeiver, a leader of guerilla forces in Colombia, in the Netflix series, Distrito Salvaje. There's a new Colombia-set series taking over Netflix. More than 35,000 locals have been hired as cast, crew and extras in these local productions over the years.Move over, Narcos. Since launching in Colombia, the OTT has worked with notable local creators – whether through licensing deals, co-productions or originals – and filmed various local and international shows across the country. Its $500,000 contribution to Colombia is part of this initiative. The fund is pledged towards supporting the worst hit workers on Netflix productions around the world as well as third parties and non-profits providing emergency relief to the broader creative community at this time. Netflix announced a $100 million fund in April to support the global creative community affected by the pandemic and recently boosted the fund to $150 million. We thank the Academy, Asocinde and Proimágenes Colombia for their collaboration and support for this initiative.”

Said Francisco Ramos, VP of Latin American Originals at Netflix: “We have a strong commitment in Colombia and with this alliance with the Academy we want to contribute to help give relief to workers in the audiovisual industry who have had to stop their work during these difficult times. The submission period kicks off on May 5 and will continue for two months or until the fund is depleted. An evaluation board, comprising Academy members, independent producers association Asocinde and film promotion non-profit Proimágenes Colombia, will evaluate the applications and determine the eligibility of the recipients within 10 days.
