The Spanish film industry has come together to show its support for Domingo Corral, who recently left his position at Movistar Plus+. A total of 144 Spanish film professionals, including top talents such as Pedro Almod\u00f3var, Rodrigo Sorogoyen, Javier Bardem, and Pen\u00e9lope Cruz, have signed a public letter thanking Corral for his work at Movistar Plus+.<\/p>\n
Corral’s departure from Movistar Plus+ came as a surprise to the Spanish film industry, particularly with the Cannes film festival just around the corner. During his time at Movistar Plus+, Corral directed the change in the streamer’s original productions, initially focusing on series and later expanding to feature films. He worked closely with leading Spanish production companies, earning the respect and appreciation of his peers.<\/p>\n
Following Corral’s departure, Jorge Penzi has taken over as the head of fiction, while Hugo Tom\u00e1s is now responsible for non-fiction and entertainment. These changes come after a shift in management at the Telef\u00f3nica group, with Marc Murtra becoming the new president in January and Daniel Domenj\u00f3 set to take over as CEO of Movistar Plus+ in March.<\/p>\n
Despite the changes, Movistar Plus+ has a number of exciting projects in the works. One of the most anticipated films is "Syrup," directed by Oliver Laxe, which will be showcased at the Cannes film festival. The film is a co-production between Movistar Plus+ and several other companies, including El Deseo and 4A4 productions. Other upcoming projects include the thriller "The Tigers" by Alberto Rodr\u00edguez, "The Black Ball" by Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, and "The Loved One" starring Javier Bardem and directed by Rodrigo Sorogoyen.<\/p>\n
The support letter signed by the Spanish film professionals thanks Corral and his team for their decades of work at Movistar Plus+, highlighting their commitment to respecting creative teams, building close relationships with independent producers, and prioritizing entertainment. The letter is a testament to Corral’s legacy and the impact he has had on the Spanish film industry.<\/p>\n
The list of professionals who have signed the letter in support of Corral is a veritable who’s who of the Spanish film industry. In addition to Almod\u00f3var, Sorogoyen, Bardem, and Cruz, the list includes filmmakers such as Alejandro Amen\u00e1bar, Oliver Laxe, and Alberto Rodr\u00edguez, as well as producers Agust\u00edn Almod\u00f3var and Esther Garc\u00eda. The president of the Spanish Film Academy, Fernando M\u00e9ndez-Leite, and actors such as Leonardo Sbaraglia, Carmen Machi, and Eduard Fern\u00e1ndez have also added their names to the letter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
