Netflix adapted Gabriel García Márquez’s novel Cien Años de Soledad (part one) into an 8-episode series, marking the first official screen adaptation since its 1967 publication.

Overseen by García Márquez’s sons, the production was filmed in Colombia and aimed to remain faithful to the Nobel Prize-winning story, which introduced countless readers to the power of magical realism. The adaptation arrived more than half a century after the novel’s release, reflecting its enduring influence on Latin American literature and beyond.

Planet X provided visual effects for select scenes, drawing on our expertise to bring key moments of the narrative to life. Watch the official Netflix trailer of Cien Años de Soledad below.
