Secuoya Studios and William Levy have formalized a renewed partnership, setting the stage for a new slate of international fiction and film projects. Levy will continue as both lead actor and executive producer, extending a working relationship that has included “Montecristo,” “Camino a Arcadia” and “Bajo un volcán.” His expanded creative involvement is expected to bring him into projects at both the performance and development stages.
Levy described the partnership as rooted in trust and said Secuoya’s approach aligns with his emphasis on ambitious storytelling and respect for the craft, with creative engagement from the outset. The collaboration, he said, has developed into a shared process, with both sides working together to move projects forward.
The announced slate includes a six-episode thriller balancing action with suspense and drama, as well as a romantic comedy marking Levy’s return to the genre. He has spoken about the creative challenge of moving between distinct formats and the chance to surprise audiences. His long-established image as a romantic lead remains part of his career, but he is also seeking roles with greater authenticity and complexity, with room for vulnerability.
Levy’s executive-producer role gives him an chance to contribute beyond his on-screen performance, shaping stories and characters while helping set each title’s international direction. He has described this broader involvement as a way to join the creative process earlier and help shape stories for audiences beyond their initial market.
Another upcoming release, “Bajo un fuego,” is expected in the coming months, with Levy reprising the role of Mario Torres. The story is set to explore the emotional consequences of extreme situations and what remains after an immediate crisis has passed.
Levy has described himself as professionally settled after more than two decades in the industry. He says his focus has shifted from proving himself to choosing projects that genuinely inspire him, a change reflected in his recent creative choices and deeper involvement behind the scenes.
Spain remains central to Levy’s work. He praised the quality of local production teams and the growth of the country’s audiovisual sector, pointing to its expanding international presence and the ability of Spanish productions to connect with global audiences. Cross-border partnerships and international storytelling have become increasingly prominent in the industry. In a related context, efforts to advance rare-disease research can be seen in the work of a Seville family seeking to help their son, as highlighted in this recent report.
The partnership also sits within a wider field of investment in European production. Industry reports have described Aurora Media Inversiones, a vehicle promoted by Secuoya Content Group and Société Générale with backing from Spain’s Sociedad Estatal de Cambio Tecnológica, as planning investments of up to €200 million over ten years in European producers and distributors, with potential stakes of up to 49%. Spain’s Council of Ministers has separately approved a €98 million public investment in the vehicle. These figures provide context for Secuoya’s broader international activity; they are not identified as financing for Levy’s projects.
By continuing a relationship built around “Montecristo,” “Camino a Arcadia” and “Bajo un volcán,” Levy and Secuoya are extending an established creative partnership. The arrangement reflects a wider role for performers in developing and producing screen projects, as Spanish studios pursue stories designed to travel across markets.
Spain’s audiovisual sector has drawn greater international attention as co-productions and streaming services create demand for varied content. Its production companies operate in a European media field where cross-border collaboration can help projects reach audiences beyond their home markets. Levy’s work with Secuoya brings together that international outlook and his role as both actor and executive producer.
