Everyone knows masked avenger Zorro, aka Diego de la Vega, righting the wrongs while trying to keep his identity secret.
Then again, maybe they don’t.
“I don’t think people were expecting this version of “Zorro.” It’s a completely new take, full of adventure, action, love and diversity,” Renata Notni tells Variety ahead of its Jan. 19 premiere in the Americas on Amazon Prime Video which bow the series in Spain on Jan. 25.
“Elite” alumni Miguel Bernardeau, now cast in the titular role, adds: “It has been a long time since his last incarnation. Before, Zorro used to be played by people who were older than Diego was supposed to be. Now, we really see his coming-of-age. He is figuring out who he wants to be as an adult. That’s something many people can relate to.”

Spanish star Miguel Bernardeau can relate to “Zorro.”
“He has to grow up really fast. He has to decide who he wants to be and he has to do it when still very young. Which also happened to me,” he tells Variety in Cannes before the market premiere of his new show.
Following the success of “Elite,” Bernardeau has become a household name. But he doesn’t think about it when choosing his roles.
“I wish it was that simple. Also, I didn’t ‘choose’ this role – I auditioned for it seven times. Before the first one, I found out my grandfather was sick and then it went really badly. But I had this fire in me already, so I kept coming back.”
Mipcom opener “Zorro” is produced by L.A. and Madrid-based Secuoya Studios and directed by Javier Quintas. As reported by Variety, Prime Video has acquired rights for the U.
