Apple TV+ announced today that its acclaimed Spanish-language crime series “Women in Blue” (“Las Azules”) has been renewed for a second season. Ariel Award nominee Bárbara Mori is set to reprise her lead role as María. She’ll be joined by returning stars Ximena Sariñana, Natalia Téllez, and Amorita Rasgado, completing an entirely Latin American main cast. The eight-episode second season is already in production.
Since its global debut, “Women in Blue” has been highly praised for its fearless storytelling. Critics have called it “simply flawless” with a “gripping storyline” that “deliciously mixes thriller, comedy, and exposes gender gaps.”
Set in 1971 and inspired by true events, the second season of “Women in Blue” continues the compelling narrative of the four women who defied the ultra-conservative norms of the era to become Mexico’s first female police force. Now promoted to lieutenant, María (Mori) finds herself caught between upholding the rules and an unrelenting drive to uncover the truth. The murder of a young university student leads to more casualties, revealing a deeper conspiracy. As the killings become bolder and the lines between perpetrator, victim, and avenger blur, María, Ángeles (Sariñana), Gabina (Rasgado), and Valentina (Téllez) are drawn into a complex maze of buried secrets and painful reckonings.
The series is created by International Emmy Award-winning showrunner and director Fernando Rovzar and Pablo Aramendi. Emmy Award nominee Wendy Riss, Erica Sánchez Su, and International Emmy Award winner Billy Rovzar serve as executive producers. The series is produced by the International Emmy Award-winning Lemon Studios.
The complete first season of “Women in Blue” (“Las Azules”) is currently streaming globally on Apple TV+.
