Apple TV+ announced today the global premiere date for Midnight Family, a new Spanish-language medical drama from Mexico.
Inspired by the award-winning documentary Midnight Family, the new Apple TV+ series, Midnight Family, features an entirely Hispanic cast and crew led by Ariel Award winner Joaquín Cosío (Narcos: Mexico), Renata Vaca (City of Dreams), Diego Calva (Babylon), and newcomer Sergio Bautista.
The ten-episode drama follows Marigaby Tamayo (Vaca), an ambitious and gifted medical student by day, who spends her nights saving lives throughout a sprawling, contrasted, and fascinating Mexico City aboard her family’s privately owned ambulance. Along with her father, Ramón (Cosío), and her siblings, Marcus (Calva) and Julito (Bautista), Marigaby serves a population of millions by tackling extreme medical emergencies to make a living.
Midnight Family premieres globally with two episodes on Wednesday, September 25, exclusively on Apple TV+, followed by one new episode every Wednesday through November 20.
The cast also includes Goya Award winner Óscar Jaenada (Hernán), José María de Tavira (El Candidato), Itzan Escamilla (Élite), Mariana Gómez (The Queen of Flow), and Dolores Heredia (Capadocia). Academy Award® nominee Yalitza Aparicio (Roma) guest stars in the series.
A production of Fremantle and Fabula for Apple TV+, Midnight Family is directed and showrun by Natalia Beristáin (Sr. Avila), created for television by Julio Rojas (La Jauría) and Ariel Award winner Gibrán Portela (The Golden Dream), and produced by Juan de Dios Larraín (Baby Bandito) and Pablo Larraín (El Presidente) through Fabula.
Ángela Poblete and Mariane Hartard serve as executive producers along with Beristáin. Rodrigo Herranz, Christian Vesper, Luke Lorentzen, Kellen Quinn, Josh Braun, and Jonathan Bouzali also serve as executive producers. The project marks the second collaboration for Apple TV+, Fremantle and Beristáin, who previously directed episodes of the Apple Original series, The Mosquito Coast.
