Prime Video is leaning in hard on its international slate of originals for 2026. Last year saw films and movies alike from other countries take over the platform in a big way, with Culpa Nuestra (Our Fault), the third and final film of its trilogy of Spanish Culpables romance features, finishing the year as the streamer's top Non-English programs, alongside the streaming sensation Maxton Hall - The World Between Us and, most recently, the German war thriller breakout hit, The Tank. The Culpables trilogy alone has racked up over 100 million viewers to date and landed at number one in over 170 countries upon each film's launch. With productions outside the United States continuing to draw audiences and break records, Prime Video held its inaugural international originals showcase on Thursday to preview its upcoming projects.
During the showcase, the streamer made known its interest in expanding its anime footprint with a reboot of the influential post-apocalyptic action anime, Fist of the North Star, and a new adaptation of Ghost in the Shell from Science SARU, while also showing off new live-action series like the Korean psychological thriller Siren's Kiss. Several buzzy new series were announced as well, including Masterplan, a bonkers French/Italian production from Reacher director Thomas Vincent and starring The Devil Wears Prada's Stanley Tucci as a father trying to reunite with his long-lost kids by involving them in a plan to steal the Mona Lisa. One of the most exciting shows to get a new look ahead of its arrival was The House of the Spirits, a Chilean production that will reunite Prime Video with one of the Culpables leads, Nicole Wallace.
At the event, a new image and a pre-released clip were unveiled, highlighting the lavish world pulled from the 1982 novel of the same name by acclaimed author Isabel Allende. The eight-episode Spanish-language series is an ambitious undertaking for Prime Video, adapting a story that has sold over 70 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 20 different languages. The show will span multiple decades and generations of women as it follows the Trueba family while they navigate love, loss, violent social upheaval, and conflict that threaten to tear them apart. Standing at opposite sides of the magical realist tale are the domineering family patriarch and his strong-willed granddaughter, with years of family secrets, struggles to get by, and an unfolding revolution finding them constantly at odds.
Who Else Is Involved in 'The House of the Spirits'?
Notably, Chile's House of the Spirits series adaptation won't be the first time the massively influential book has come to life. Billie August directed a feature film version in 1993 that boasted an eye-watering cast of stars, including Meryl Streep, Glenn Close, Winona Ryder, Jeremy Irons, and Antonio Banderas. While audiences enjoyed it and it was lauded with awards in Europe, it didn't live up to expectations in the eyes of U.S. critics. The series will look to do the book justice with an all-star international cast featuring Alfonso Herrera, Dolores Fonzi, Juan Pablo Raba, and Fernanda Castillo, and a production team that includes the author Allende and Eva Longoria as executive producers alongside showrunners Francisca Alegría, Fernanda Urrejola, and Andrés Wood.
