Álex de la Iglesia's very first Netflix project, 1992 premiered on the streaming platform on December 13, 2024. Set in its titular year, 1992 chronicles a series of bizarre murders in Spain. The central characters are Amparo, the widow of one of the victims, and a former cop turned security guard, Richi.

Set against the backdrop of Seville's Expo 92, the series blends thriller, suspense, and political intrigue through its six episodes. Iglesia co-wrote 1992 with Jorge Guerricaechevarría, and the script was written by Pablo Tébar (Bandidos), and Jorge Valdano (Headless Chickens).

The official synopsis of the series reads,

"After the death of her husband in a strange explosion, Amparo (Marian Alvárez) begins to search for answers with the only help of Richi (Fernando Valdivielso), a security guard, ex-cop and alcoholic. Meanwhile, the murders always follow the same pattern: next to the burned bodies of the victims appears a doll of Curro, the iconic mascot of the Expo '92 in Seville."

Iglesia is one of the most prominent names in the Spanish film industry and has created a genre of his own over the years. With his movies Mutant Action and The Day of the Beast, he has immensely contributed to the Spanish fantastique genre. He also collaborated with HBO Max for 30 Coins, and with Sony Pictures and Prime Video for Veneciafrenia, Four's a Crowd, and Venus.

According to produ.com, Iglesia commented on the production of the series after receiving a tribute for his career at the Guadalajara International Film Festival. He said,

“It has been very difficult to shoot; we had to recreate the Sevilla of Expo 92, an abandoned and terrifying expo, so it was complicated in terms of production. But Netflix was there, and we already had experience with this type of super-production. After 30 Monedas, we know how to get ourselves into trouble.”

The trailer for Netflix's 1992 opens with the dialogue, "You cannot tell anyone what I'm about to tell you", creating suspense from the get-go.
