Interesting facts

The series adapts the 1957 comic by Hector German Oesterheld and Francisco Solano Lopez, a work of near-mythic status in Argentina. Oesterheld and all four of his daughters were forcibly disappeared during the country's military dictatorship, giving the story an enduring political weight far beyond its genre trappings.

Director Bruno Stagnaro drew on an eerie real-world echo: having watched pandemic lockdowns turn Buenos Aires into a genuine ghost town, he brought that emptied, hushed quality to the show's vision of a snow-struck, depopulated city.

It became one of Netflix's most-watched non-English titles and a source of national pride in Argentina, where the original comic is commemorated with a mural in a Buenos Aires subway station. A second season has been confirmed.

The Eternaut

description

The Eternaut is Netflix's first Argentine original series and one of the most ambitious science-fiction productions ever mounted in Latin America. Directed by Bruno Stagnaro, it adapts El Eternauta, the legendary 1957 graphic novel by writer Hector German Oesterheld and artist Francisco Solano Lopez that holds near-mythic status in Argentina.

Ricardo Darin, the country's most celebrated actor, stars as Juan Salvo, an ordinary man thrust into an extraordinary nightmare when a silent, deadly snow begins falling over Buenos Aires, killing instantly anyone it touches and knocking out power across the city. As Salvo and a small band of survivors improvise makeshift protection and venture into the frozen streets, they realize the snow is only the opening move of a vast and terrifying alien invasion.

Released in 2025, the series became a global phenomenon and one of Netflix's most-watched non-English titles, praised for its craft, its scale, and the way it grounds cosmic horror in ordinary human solidarity. Its resonance is deepened by the history of its source material and its author, and a second season has been confirmed. It is streaming on Netflix.
