Ester Expósito and Claudia Salas will headline “The Blondes,” a darkly comic crime thriller directed by Spanish filmmaker Carlota Pereda, as the project is presented to buyers at the American Film Market (AFM) this week.
Pereda, who earned acclaim for her feature “Piggy,” describes “The Blondes” as a story inspired by a true‑crime case, blending humor with suspense in a genre‑bending thriller.
Both Expósito and Salas rose to international prominence as breakout stars of Netflix’s hit series “Elite,” a teen drama that has amassed a global following since its debut.
Paris‑based sales company Playtime has taken on international sales for the film, using the AFM platform to introduce the project to potential distributors and financiers.
Details on the film’s production schedule, release window or additional cast members have not been disclosed, with Playtime indicating that negotiations with buyers are ongoing.
