Nothing is simple in Toy Boy, a show about a male stripper wrongly convicted of murder who, along with the help of a young lawyer, attempts to find the real culprit. The problem? There are actually multiple crimes — and multiple murderers — in the first season alone.
As the series unfolds, we discover that twentysomething “toy boy” Hugo Beltrán (Jesús Mosquera) is found on his houseboat with the charred body of Philip Norman (Virgil Mathet), the husband of Hugo’s lover, Macarena Medina (Cristina Castaño). Despite having no memory of the night, Hugo is convicted of murder and imprisoned for seven years, until a young lawyer at a high-powered firm, Triana Marín (María Pedraza), successfully petitions for a new trial and gets him out of prison.
The pair uncovers a conspiracy that involves crooked cops, billionaire business rivals, the Irish mafia, an orgy and an innocent teenager. And the question...

Exclusive: Key Spanish seller Filmax has taken international rights to comedy I Can Quit Whenever I Want (Lo Dejo Cuando Quiera) from local giant Telecinco Cinema, producers of the successful Spanish reboot of Perfect Strangers, The Impossible and The Orphanage, and Mod Producciones, producers of The Tribe and The Summit.
The anticipated Spanish-language film is a remake of hit Italian crime-comedy Smetto Quando Voglio, about three college professors, recently unemployed due to the economic crisis, who develop a multi-vitamin that allows them to party all night long without side effects. They launch themselves into the world of nightclubs and shady dealings, hoping to find a market for their new wonder drug.
This one sounds like a lot of fun. English-language remake potential seems clear.
Starring are David Verdaguer (Summer 1993), Ernesto Sevilla (We Are Pregnant), Carlos Santos (Smoke and Mirrors), Cristina Castaño (Under the Same Roof), Miren Ibarguren, Amaia Salamanca (Our...
