Netflix has released a new teaser for Narcos: Mexico’s Season 3, which will also be the companion series’s final season. The next batch of the drug-cartel drama’s episodes will hit the streaming service on November 5.
According to a release, over the last 10 episodes “newly independent cartels struggle to survive political upheaval and escalating violence, [and] a new generation of Mexican kingpins emerge. But in this war, truth is the first casualty–and every arrest, murder, and take-down only pushes real victory further away.” Check out the new clip below to see how things will both heat up and wrap up.
This next season sees a lot of changes–including the addition of nine series regulars plus the show’s first female narrator. Newcomer Luisa Rubino, who plays an idealistic journalist Andrea Nuñez with the mission to expose corruption, will offer commentary on these explosive episodes as the action plays out. New cast members include Luis Gerardo Méndez as Juarez cop Victor Tapia, Alberto Guerra as drug trafficker Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, and Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio “Bad Bunny,” who guest stars as Arturo “Kitty” Paez, a member of Ramon Arellano Felix’s gang called the “Narco Juniors.”
“When we began this endeavor–making a show in two languages, in a country that had never seen this kind of production–it seemed insane,” showrunner Eric Newman told The Hollywood Reporter when Season 3 was renewed in 2020. “But Netflix saw its potential then and their faith in us never wavered.”
