Netflix's new comedy about an aspiring reggaetónero has finally arrived.
The renowned video streaming service recently released its new TV series "Neon" starring Tyler Dean Flores, Emma Ferreira, Jordan Mendoza, Jordana Brewster, Jhayco and more. "Neon" follows the life and times of Santi from southwest Florida, who has big dreams of becoming a prominent reggaetón artist. Santi and his friends Ness (Ferreira) & Felix (Mendoza) make the move down to Miami to chase his dream. With the help of his A&R rep Mia (Courtney Taylor), Santi does everything he can to make his dream come true while trying to survive the music industry.
“This show has been a true team effort, all with a common goal to showcase reggaeton, a popular and growing genre with an immense cultural impact, on a global platform," James Shin, President of Film and Television for HYBE America, one of the producers bringing this show to screens worldwide. One Six, Tainy, Daddy Yankee and the entire team wanted this to be unique, new, different, and true to an emerging artist. It’s important to spotlight original genres, and diversity. For the first time, a show is doing that in a premium capacity with NEON on Netflix.”
The show is also executive produced by Shea Serrano, Max Searle, Daddy Yankee, Scooter Braun, Scott Manson and Kyle Vinuya. Yankee makes an appearance during the eight-episode series along with fellow Puerto Rican artist Jhayco.
