William Levy renews his collaboration with Secuoya Studios, taking on both acting and executive production in upcoming international projects. The agreement signals a shift in creative control and genre diversity for the Cuban-American star.
Secuoya Studios and William Levy have formalized a renewed partnership, setting the stage for a new wave of international fiction and film projects. The agreement, announced this week, confirms Levy’s continued involvement not only as lead actor but also as executive producer—a dual role he previously held in productions such as 'Montecristo', 'Camino a Arcadia', and 'Bajo un volcán'. This expanded creative input is expected to shape the direction and tone of the studio’s upcoming releases.
Levy, who has built a reputation for versatility across genres, described the foundation of the renewed deal as rooted in trust. He emphasized that the Secuoya team aligns with his working style, which prioritizes ambition, respect for storytelling, and deep engagement from the outset. According to the actor, the collaboration has matured into a unified approach, with both sides committed to pushing projects forward together.
Among the first new projects is a six-episode thriller blending action, suspense, and drama, alongside a romantic comedy that marks Levy’s return to a genre that brought him widespread recognition. He noted the appeal of moving between such distinct formats, highlighting the creative challenge and opportunity to surprise audiences. While Levy acknowledges his longstanding image as a romantic lead, he now seeks roles that offer authenticity, vulnerability, and complexity, viewing his established persona as a valuable part of his career rather than a limitation.
The actor’s growing involvement behind the scenes reflects a broader ambition: to influence projects from their inception. As executive producer, Levy aims to shape narratives, character development, and the international trajectory of each title. This approach, he says, allows for a more holistic creative process and ensures that each project resonates beyond its initial market.
One of the upcoming releases, 'Bajo un fuego', is set to premiere in the coming months. While details remain under wraps, Levy confirmed he will reprise the role of Mario Torres, with the storyline delving into the emotional aftermath of extreme situations. The narrative is expected to explore what lingers beneath the surface once the immediate crisis has passed.
The timing of the renewed agreement coincides with a period Levy describes as professionally stable. After more than twenty years in the industry, he notes a shift in perspective: the drive to prove himself has given way to a focus on projects that genuinely inspire him. This evolution, he suggests, is reflected in his current choices and deeper creative involvement.
Spain remains central to Levy’s work, with the actor praising the caliber of local teams and the rapid growth of the Spanish audiovisual sector. He points to the industry’s increasing international presence and the ability of Spanish productions to connect with global audiences. This sentiment echoes broader trends in Spanish media, where cross-border collaborations and international storytelling have become more prominent. In a related context, the drive for innovation and international reach can be seen in other sectors as well, such as the efforts of a Seville family to advance rare disease research for their son, as highlighted in this recent report.
With the new agreement, William Levy and Secuoya Studios are set to deepen a professional relationship that has already produced several high-profile projects. The partnership underscores a broader shift in the Spanish entertainment industry, where creative talent is increasingly involved in both the artistic and production sides of major releases. As the sector continues to expand its international footprint, collaborations like this are likely to play a key role in shaping the future of Spanish-language content on the global stage.
For context, Spain’s audiovisual industry has seen significant growth in recent years, with international co-productions and streaming platforms driving demand for diverse content. The country’s studios have attracted global attention for their storytelling and technical expertise, positioning Spain as a major player in the European media landscape. This environment provides fertile ground for partnerships like the one between Levy and Secuoya Studios, which aim to deliver stories that resonate with audiences both at home and abroad.
