The newly established production company 1555 Films Productions, spearheaded by a well-known designer, has announced an in-person casting call in Madrid starting on May 2, 2026, for its major debut project, the series La Familia de la Vega.

The Spanish film industry is eagerly anticipating the arrival of 1555 Films Productions, a new company founded by a designer with a distinctive creative vision. The company's name, 1555, is a personal nod symbolizing the identity and vision of its creator, who aims to make a significant impact in the sector.
The producer's first major project is the series La Familia de la Vega, an ambitious production set in 18th-century Seville. This era, characterized by its elegance, power, and social tensions, will serve as the backdrop for a visually stunning and emotionally intense narrative, which is already attracting interest from platforms and distributors.
The official casting for the series will commence on May 2, 2026, in Madrid. The production, which will be compensated, is seeking diverse profiles, with a strong emphasis on inclusion and the representation of multiple ethnicities, including Afro-descendants, Asians, Arabs, and Latinos, all with perfect command of Spanish. Training in acting or flamenco dancing will be particularly valued.

"Diverse profiles are sought, with a commitment to inclusion and the representation of multiple ethnicities, all with perfect command of Spanish."

The series has already been compared to international television phenomena and is poised to become one of Spain's major period productions.
