December 26, 2024The film 'Culpa Mía' has made a remarkable impact, ranking among Prime Video's top 10 titles in over 190 countries during its opening weekend and becoming the platform's leading international original movie.
González aims to enhance the humor and action in the adaptations, targeting a more mature audience while still respecting the intelligence of younger viewers.
Director Domingo González expressed surprise at the global success of 'Culpa Mía,' particularly noting its popularity in diverse markets such as India, Indonesia, and South Korea.
Produced by Pokeepsie Films, part of Banijay Iberia, and Amazon MGM Studios, the film features Nicole Wallace as Noah and Gabriel Guevara as Nick.
The narrative is based on Mercedes Ron's 'Culpables' trilogy, which has sold over three million copies and amassed more than 100 million reads on Wattpad.
The upcoming film 'Culpa Tuya' addresses more adult challenges faced by the characters Noah and Nick, with screenplay adjustments made based on fan feedback.
Set to premiere on Prime Video on December 27, 2024, 'Culpa Tuya' is directed by González and continues the story established in the first film.
The premiere event for 'Culpa Tuya' was held at the Palacio Vistalegre Arena in Madrid, attracting 4,000 fans and influencers, showcasing strong support for the franchise.
To avoid the typical pitfalls of sequels, González and co-writer Sofía Cuenca completed the follow-up scripts before the release of the first movie.
González believes that 'Culpa Tuya' is an improvement over 'Culpa Mía' and anticipates that the third installment, 'Culpa Nuestra,' set for release in 2025, will be even better.
In addition to 'Culpa Tuya,' an Anglo version titled 'Culpa Mia – My Fault: London' is in production, along with a new adaptation based on Ron's upcoming book 'Dímelo Bajito' (Tell Me Softly).
Initially brought in to direct, González became deeply engaged with the source material, leading him to write the screenplay and successfully pitch it to Amazon.
