True crime fans have reason to celebrate as Carles Porta's acclaimed series 'Crímenes' returns to Movistar Plus with a brand new season, premiering today, July 14th. The Spanish true crime genre has gained immense popularity, and Porta has become one of its most prominent figures.
The new season arrives on the platform's Plan Libre, which offers cinema and series for just €4.99 per month. This budget-friendly option comes with no commitment and allows account sharing with a friend or family member, making it an attractive choice for streaming enthusiasts.
What to Expect from the New Season of 'Crímenes'
The latest season features a case titled 'El asesino de la pandemia' (The Pandemic Killer), which promises to maintain the high-quality true crime storytelling that Porta is known for. The series delves into real criminal cases with a meticulous approach, captivating audiences with its in-depth research and compelling narration.

Porta's other productions, such as 'Mátalo ya', 'Tor', and 'Peregrina', are already available on Movistar Plus, solidifying his reputation as a master of the genre. This new season adds to an already impressive catalog, ensuring subscribers have plenty of true crime content to explore.
