Netflix’s latest Brazil slate includes a series set in the world of MMA; another about the iconic Brazilian football team of the 1970s; a movie spin-off of the Sintonia series; and documentaries about soccer stars Neymar and Ronaldinho. The streamer has also greenlit its first local horror movie and first wildlife doc.
New films include an untitled drama about the Elize Matsunaga case, in which Matsunaga killed and dismembered her husband—a case that was previously the subject of Netflix’s 2021 docuseries Elize Matsunaga: Once Upon a Crime. Netflix has also greenlit Fazenda Colonial, a Brazilian horror movie that follows a group of friends on an ill-fated trip to an old farm.
Teen crime drama Sintonia ran to five seasons and Netflix said its film spin-off will continue the story. The series has been the biggest franchise on Netflix’s Brazilian service.
