ZeroZeroZero S1
ZeroZeroZero traces a shipment of cocaine on its journey through Mexico and across the Atlantic Ocean to the Italian cartel buying it.
The Sky and CANAL+ co-production has an 8.1/10 score on IMDb and a 94% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with The Independent (UK) saying, “This dark cocaine opera is brilliant, bleak escapism… a little of The Godfather, a splash of Sicario and a dash of Succession: a tasty recipe.”
The cast includes Oscar nominee Andrea Riseborough (To Leslie), BAFTA nominee Dane DeHaan (Oppenheimer), Emmy nominee Gabriel Byrne (In Treatment), award-winner Tcheky Karyo (The Missing), and Harold Torres, who was nominated for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Male Performance in a New Scripted Series for his performance as Manuel Quinteras.
Based on the novel by Roberto Saviano, the series is co-created by Gomorrah’s Stefano Sollima and Leonardo Fasoli with Writers Guild of America nominee Mauricio Katz (Maniac).
