La Máquina, a new drama series starring Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna, explores a boxer's resilience in the face of brutality in the ring and the dangers of the criminal world. Available on Disney+ from October 9, 2024.

Starring Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna, two icons of Mexican cinema, La Máquina is a dramatic series that plunges into the heart of the ruthless world of boxing. This new series highlights the struggles of a former champion in decline, confronted not only by his own failures, but also by criminal forces desperate to profit from his comeback. Eiza Gonzalez joins the cast as Irasema, the hero's ex-wife, adding a personal and emotional dimension to this story of survival and redemption.

Esteban Osuna, nicknamed "La Máquina" (Gael García Bernal), sees his boxing career brought to an abrupt halt after a crushing defeat. Away from the spotlight, he tries to regain control of his life. But his best friend and manager, Andy Lujan (Diego Luna), still believes in him and does everything in his power to organize his comeback. However, this comeback is far from a simple sporting challenge. A criminal organization interferes, turning this decisive first fight into a matter of life and death. Esteban must not only prove his worth in the ring, but also protect his family, including his ex-wife Irasema (Eiza Gonzalez), a journalist caught up in the turmoil of a corrupt and dangerous boxing world.

La Máquina will appeal to fans of intense dramas combining sport, thriller and complex emotional issues. With universal themes such as redemption, resilience and the sacrifices required to protect those we love, the series is reminiscent of works such as Creed or Raging Bull, where the characters' inner struggles are as intense as the physical ordeals. Fans of Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna, who have already shared the screen in films such as Y tu mamá también, will find their remarkable chemistry here in a darker, more mature register. The series, with its criminal intrigue and moral stakes, brings an original dimension to the sports drama genre.

Starring Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna, La Máquina promises to be a striking series, both thrilling and emotional. A blend of sports drama and crime thriller, this new production delves into the dark underbelly of the boxing world, where every victory has its price. Starting October 9, 2024, Disney+ will offer viewers this poignant series, where the fights in the ring are only part of the story.
