The adaptation promises to maintain the essence of the original series. The German production is already underway with an extraordinary cast and will be one of Joyn’s major premieres in December 2024.

Sebastian Bezzel and Johanna C. Gehlen are the protagonists of the adaptation, alongside an outstanding cast and crew.

Fran Araújo, executive producer at Movistar Plus+, stated: “‘Poquita Fe’ is proof that the most local and particular humor can resonate in different countries. We are very pleased that our German partners have chosen to bring this portrayal of everyday miseries to their country. We are confident it will make their viewers laugh as much as it has done with Spanish audiences.”

Alexander Keil, Manager at SKP Entertainment GmbH, expressed his enthusiasm for the project: “We are delighted to bring ‘Poquita fe’ to the German market and believe it will have as much impact on our viewers as it has had in Spain.”
