Buenos Aires has only seen snowfall three times in its recorded history. And yet, snowflakes begin to fall, coating the ground. It’s beautiful, but unnerving. Something is very, very off about this weather: It’s fatal. Anyone touched by the snowflakes is killed instantly, leading to millions of deaths. But what is this lethal threat, and what other horrors will follow? As survivors emerge, a man named Juan Salvo is among them — and he’s determined to fight back against this invisible force. The Eternaut, also known as El Eternauta in Spanish, is a sci-fi series created & showrun by Argentinian writer / director Bruno Stagnaro, of Pizza, Beer, and Cigarettes and the series “Un gallo para Esculapio” most recently. Written by Bruno Stagnaro and Ariel Staltari. With episodes directed by Stagnaro. Adapted from the Eisner Award-winning graphic novel The Eternaut (aka El Eternauta) written by Héctor Germán Oesterheld and illustrated by Francisco Solano-López. It’s produced by Diego Copello, Leticia Cristi, Matías Mosteirín, and Hugo Sigman. Netflix will debut The Eternaut streaming on Netflix starting in early 2025 – stay tuned for more. First impression?
