  • Opinion: Netflix Elite, all wrong, all perfectly irresistible

Although the first season of "Elite" has been seen by more than 20 million homes, they have just renovated for a third and fans have made it an international phenomenon, the creators try to obviate this success: "When you are at the service of the fan is the worst, you have to be at the service of history. "

This has been clearly stated by Carlos Montero, one of the creators of the series, in the presentation of this Thursday of the second season, which returns to Netflix on September 6 after reaping success in hundreds of countries, although he says that "there is no let that contaminate when creating the story . "

If the death of Marina (María Pedraza) was the main thread of the plot in the first season, in this second the disappearance of another of the main characters will guide the secrets of the students of the exclusive school of Las Encinas, interpreted by Miguel Bernardeau, Danna Paola, Aron Piper, Esther Expósito, Álvaro Rico, Omar Ayuso, Mina El Hammani and Izan Escamilla.

The structure of the temporary jumps is maintained, "because it is a brand of the house, that mystery is the franchise of the series," says the other creator, Darío Madrona, who confirms that they will also repeat the formula in the third season: "If there were ten seasons of 'Elite', the ten would be like that . "

Madrona promises to deepen the characters that only appeared in the first round, such as Lu (Danna Paola), who in this second installment will have a "deeper development" , especially thanks to the arrival of his brother Valerio, played by Chilean actor Jorge López , who joins the cast as a new student with Claudia Salas and Georgina Amarós , also new additions.

The drama of teenagers who live life as if they were adults has always given great importance to music and the actors confess to having a playlist for their characters , although there are determining songs for the whole cast in general, such as "The moment" , from La Casa Azul, in the first, and "Losing my religion", from REM, for the second.

Success, Madrona believes, is based on "dealing with very contemporary issues such as social networks, the clash between cultures, between social classes," although he explains that they do not work with a predetermined list of issues to be addressed, but that "everything happens in a way natural for its topicality and for how it relates to history. "

A series of "children playing to be older" that leads "to have very good characters built, with a very interesting internal life," summed up Silvia Quer, who joined the project to take charge of the direction next to the already veteran Dani of the Order.
