Michael Peña & Diego Luna have been cast in season 4 of Narcos. The Netflix series recently began production on season four in Mexico City and is expected to launch in 2018.
In true Netflix fashion, no info was given about their characters or where season 4 would be headed, but I’m sure the casting will intrigue fans of the streaming series.
When we last left the show in season 3, the hunt for Pablo Escobar had ended, and the DEA and agent Javier Peña (Pedro Pascal) turned their attention to the powerful Cali Cartel and its four Kings: cartel leader Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela (Damian Alcazar); Miguel Rodriguez Orejuela (Francisco Denis), the brains behind the rise of the of Cali Cartel and Gilberto’s brother; Pacho Herrera (Alberto Ammann), the on-the-low hitman who runs the Mexican connection and international distribution; and Chepe Santacruz Londono (Pepe Rapazote), who runs the satellite NYC empire of the Colombian drug network.
Peña was most recently seen in the big-screen version of CHIPS, along with Collateral Beauty, Ant-Man, The Martian and American Hustle. The actor has several films in various stages of completion including 12 Strong, A Wrinkle in Time and Ant-Man and the Wasp.
Luna played Cassian Andor in last year’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and his recent screen credits include Flatliners, Blood Father, and Elysium. Next up are the features Berlin, I Love You and A Rainy Day in New York.
