A documentary on Spain’s World Cup triumph – with exclusive behind-the-scenes access to its victories over Argentina and France – is coming to Prime Video.
The four-part series, which will arrive exclusively on the platform by the end of the year, will contain never-before-seen footage and testimonials from all the champions, including key players in the Spanish national team.
“Viewers will have access to unique moments that explain the triumph of a group of 26 players and coaching staff who, over the course of 52 days, acted like a family,” Prime Video said on Friday. “Effort, laughter, complicity, moments of tension and demand: the docuseries offers spectacle, entertainment and convergence to understand the keys to success built on competitive instinct and the relentless drive to improve a team that will be remembered for what and, above all, how.”
The documentary series was produced by Real Federación Española de Fútbol (RFEF) in collaboration with Telefónica Broadcast Services (TBS).
It was a massive World Cup for the Spaniards, and a massive World Cup in general. Hollywood Reporter I reported this week that almost from the opening kick, the tournament set viewing records in the United States
Sunday’s final, which saw Spain win a second World Cup title over Lionel Messi and Argentina, had a combined audience — on Fox, Telemundo and Peacock — of 62.8 million viewers in the United States, eclipsing the previous all-time high for a soccer telecast in the United States, which was 26.7 million viewers for the 2015 Women’s World Cup final. The highest mark for the men’s match was 25.78 million for the 2022 final.
The semifinals also brought in big numbers, with Argentina’s comeback win over England scoring 28.3 million combined viewers (16.9 million on Fox, 11.4 million on Telemundo and Peacock) and Spain’s shutout of France earning 22.91 million (13.11 million for Fox, 9.8 million for Telemundo/Peacock).
