Hollywood producers casting for new series being shot in Malaga on Spain’s Costa del Sol

Hollywood producers are back in Malaga on Spain’s Costa del Sol filming a new series which will be shot in the province and Almeria.

AFTER a lengthy break due to the coronavirus, television producers are back and looking for local talent to star in ‘Marked The Unforgiven,’ a series inspired by Hell’s Angels, adapted from the bestseller Marked written by George Christie, former president of the Hells Angels of Ventura, California.

Auditions will take place at the end of the month, and a date will be set on June 15 for castings at Miramar Hotel in Malaga and in the auditorium of the Guitar Museum in Almeria.

Wanda-Halcyon’s communications director, Laura Beltrán Jiménez, said producers “hope to launch some promising Spanish actors who want to participate in a Hollywood production that will be seen around the world,”  adding that the production team is “excited to hire local talent whenever possible as part of our commitment to economic development in the region.”

In a statement, Hormiguea, the Spanish communications agency which promotes Hollywood productions, explained that Marked The Unforgiven is the story of former Navy recon sniper Jack Crest, who returns home to Ventura, California, from Afghanistan.

He becomes the protégé of ‘Big John’ played by George Christie, and the two form a motorcycle club comprised only of veterans: Marine Recon, Green Berets, Navy Seals, Delta Operators and a Coast Guard captain.

The production was the brainchild of Sutish Sharma, former BBC executive and CEO of New Street Pictures, Pinewood Studios, in London and Pat Andrew of Wanda-Halcyon Television, former executive of Spelling Entertainment Inc.

Andrew was recently named one of the top producers to watch in Europe in 2020.
