Atresplayer Unveils Dynamic 2026 Content Slate with New Formats and Audio Expansion

Atresplayer has revealed an ambitious lineup of new content set to premiere throughout 2026, emphasizing innovation in formats and expansion into audio entertainment. The announcement was made at the Atresplayer Day event in Gran Canaria, which assembled key actors, producers, and executives from the Spanish audiovisual industry.

Central to Atresplayer's strategy is the launch of vertical microdramas, a novel format in Spain featuring ultra-short episodes of one to three minutes designed for vertical consumption on mobile devices. The microdrama "Una novia para Navidad," starring Marina Baeza and influencer Carla Flila, is among the first of this kind currently in production.

Fiction continues to dominate the platform's slate, with the December 14 return of "Los Protegidos: Un nuevo poder," followed by "Padre no hay más que uno: la serie" in January 2026, adapted from Santiago Segura’s film. Other significant new titles include "Rafaela y su loco mundo," "Entre tierras," and "La Nena," alongside sequels "Renata & Nicole" and "Sira." Atresplayer will also delve into crime dramas with "Ágata y Lola" and the prison escape-based "33 días."

New original shows like "Nos vamos de madre" and "Pyjamada" are set to diversify the offering further. Additionally, Atresplayer is integrating Onda Cero Podcast’s original productions starting December 1, enhancing its audio content catalog with true crime and documentary series. Plans for 2026 include launching new podcast projects such as "La Hermandad" and "El hombre equivocado," which investigates a notable legal miscarriage in Spain.

This broad spectrum of content underscores Atresmedia’s commitment to captivating both traditional viewers and younger, mobile-oriented audiences, innovating across multiple platforms to remain a significant force in Spain's entertainment landscape.
