Netflix has released the first full official trailer for ‘Narcos: Mexico‘ Season 2 which is set to premiere in February 2020, and it looks like things are heading downhill fast for Félix Gallardo… After all, no high can last forever…
‘Narcos: Mexico’ continued from the huge success of the original ‘Narcos’ series, moving the drama from Columbia to explore the origins of the modern drug war in Mexico. Season 1 began at a time when Mexican trafficking world was a loose and disorganized confederation of independent growers and dealers and followed the rise of the Guadalajara Cartel in the 1980s. Diego Luna starred as Félix Gallardo, boss of the Guadalajara Cartel, whilst Michael Peña took the role of DEA agent Kiki Camarena, the man trying to stop him.
For those of you who haven’t finished the first season, STOP READING – SPOILER WARNING…
If you are still here and have finished Season 1, you will know we are in for some cast changes, due to the events of the finale, which saw Peña’s Agent Camarena being brutally murdered. The last few moments also revealed the new lead, and the man who had narrated the entire first season – Scoot McNairy (‘Halt and Catch Fire’, ‘Godless’) as DEA Agent Walt Breslin.
Breslin popped up in the final scenes of the drama, as Operation Leyenda launches off the back of Camarena’s death. He is described as “a hardened DEA agent whose methods aren’t always by the book.”
Season 2 continues the story of Miguel A?ngel ?Fe?lix Gallardo, now the Godfather of the first Mexican cartel – the Guadalajara cartel – as he struggles to maintain control, grow his empire, and reconcile the betrayals and sacrifices he had to make on his way to becoming El Padrino. As friction between the different “plazas” of his cartel rises, Fe???lix’s control over the situation slips.
Meanwhile, the death of DEA agent Kiki Camarena at the hands of the cartel and corrupt politicians brings a hailstorm of retribution to Mexico. “Operation Leyenda” led by the dogged DEA agent Walt Breslin, whose methods aren’t always by-the-book, targets Fe???lix Gallardo and his chief lieutenants, adding to the instability and volatility of the cartel.
‘Narcos: Mexico‘ Season 2 premieres Thursday, 13th February 2020 on Netflix UK and worldwide.
