The Elche-born actress confirms that the second season of the TV series The Snow Girl will close with an ending designed to grip viewers and prevent the audience from spiraling into speculation. The project centers on the character played by Milena Smit, who also authored The Soul Game, the novel on which this new adaptation is based. While reflecting on the reception of the first season, she notes it was an intense launch, and she believes the upcoming chapters present a serious and multi-layered narrative. Viewers are expected to be deeply drawn in, and the finale promises surprises that will leave a strong impression, according to statements given during filming in Malaga.
Directors David Ulloa and Laura Alvea offered cautious previews about the forthcoming episodes. Rather than detailing plot points, they described the season through themes of faith, mystery, and omens. The new run will consist of six episodes and will premiere on Netflix. Journalists follow the investigative path of Miren Rojo, the lead character who begins with a direct, almost confrontational question: Do you want to play? The scene unfolds as she receives an envelope bearing that question and a photo of a young woman bound and gagged.
Rojo then dives into the secrets of an elite school tied to the disappearance and murder of two teenagers. Joining her is Jaime, portrayed by Miki Esparbé, a seasoned investigative journalist who arrives at the Sur newspaper seeking to repair his professional reputation after a turbulent past.
Smit explains that this season represented a bold period in her professional life, characterized by significant risks that helped her grow as an actor. Her portrayal of Miren Rojo proved to be demanding and deeply enriching, presenting a character described as difficult, multilayered, painful, and challenging to portray. Over nearly two years since the first season shot, the team learned to appreciate the character beyond set pieces, allowing for a more relaxed yet determined approach. The actress notes she does not confine herself to narrow interpretations and remains open to new possibilities.
Esparbé shares a sense of joy about participating in a production with a strong technical and artistic team, and he acknowledges continuing the story’s legacy crafted by Javier Castillo, a Malaga native known for his engaging storytelling.
Aixa Villagrán returns as the police inspector, with fresh enthusiasm about this installment, noting that she even liked it more than the first season. The ensemble also features Milena Smit, who has previously appeared in Parallel Mothers, Thou Shalt Not Kill, and Dragonfly. Joining the cast in this season are Aixa Villagrán, Marco Cáceres, José Coronado, and others who reprise familiar roles.
The cast is rounded out by Hugo Welzel, Luis Callejo, Luis Bermejo, Vicente Romero, and actors Jesús Mesas and Javier Andrés Roig. The production adapts the source material for the screen, with filming beginning on January 15 in Malaga and continuing through Madrid. The schedule targets a finish in late spring, with completion anticipated by late April or early May.
