Last night in an appearance orchestrated by Pablo Motos at a location chosen for promotional purposes, Santiago Segura teased excited fans with news about his latest projects. The filmmaker, known for his provocative humor and enduring love of cinema, spoke candidly about a family film that is near to his heart. The reveal came as a surprise to many and set the tone for what audiences can expect from Segura in the near future. —
The conversation with Motos went beyond the upcoming family project. Segura unexpectedly dropped a headline that instantly grabbed attention: a new chapter in the Torrente saga. The audience learned he is actively writing the next installment, signaling that the saga will continue to expand its footprint in both popular culture and the director’s long-standing body of work.
Producers and fans alike received a second round of news when Segura confirmed that principal photography for the new Torrente feature would commence in 2025. The working title given by the filmmaker is President of Torrente, a bold choice that hints at a fresh, perhaps satirical angle while staying true to the series’ signature tone. The project is described as continuing to probe the darker undercurrents of society, a hallmark of the franchise that has kept audiences engaged for years.
In discussing the creative direction, Segura underscored the balance between sharp social commentary and the community-oriented humor that fans expect from Torrente. He noted that while the film will tackle serious themes, it will also preserve the character-driven dynamic and brisk pacing that have defined the series. This dual focus aims to attract longtime followers and new viewers who enjoy a candid, no-nonsense take on contemporary life.
