‘Nowhere’ Star Anna Castillo, ‘Elite’ Icon Ester Expósito Set for ‘Death to Love’ From ‘Piggy’ Director Carlota Pereda (EXCLUSIVE)
Relating two female vampires’ toxic love affair, ‘Death to Love’ weighs in as one Spain’s hottest series in the making.
Pereda dazzled Sundance in 2022 with her feature debut “Piggy,” using “standard genre shocks almost as MacGuffins,” it’s the all-too-recognizable horror of brutalized adolescence that really makes us wince,” Variety wrote in an upbeat review. So “Death to Love’s” heart lies in a woman struggle to end a toxic relationship, here with her equally vampire female lover, narrated down the centuries to a modern-day climax. Arguably the biggest draw of early “Elite” seasons, Expósito has sought to broaden her repertoire in Manolo Caro’s “Somebody Has to Die,” Jaume Valguero’s “Venus,” for which she won a best actress Fotogramas de Plata Award, and Amat Escalante’s Cannes mystery thriller “Lost in the Night.”
