Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal in the ring for The machine
In 2022, Diego Luna reprised his role as Cassian Andor – introduced in Scoundrel One (2016) – with the series Andor. While waiting for a second season that will soon arrive on Disney+, subscribers to the streaming service will be able to find the actor of a completely different kind with The machine. A drama that tends towards thriller and which takes place in the world of boxingand for which Diego Luna did not hesitate to appear physically transformed. It is in fact with his face frozen by prosthetics that we discover him the trailer of the series (video on the front page of an article).
In the next program we will follow Esteban Osuna, a boxer nicknamed “La Máquina” and played by Gael García Bernal. A famous athlete who sees his career take a hard hit after a stinging defeat. To help him get back on the scene, he can count on his best friend and manager, Andy Lujan, played by Diego Luna, as well as his ex-wife, Irasema, played by Eiza Gonzalez. However, when a criminal organization orders him to miss one of his matches, La Máquina finds himself in a complicated situation, torn between his desire to succeed and his desire to protect those close to him.
When will the series come out on Disney+?
As we can see in this fast-paced trailer The machineMuch of the quality of the show should be in the performances of Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna. The first appears very credible in the ring. And the second appears more and more enthusiastic and expressive despite his face frozen by plastic surgery. However, the tense atmosphere should keep the audience alive during the six episodes of the series. Disney+ will put them online in full from October 9th.
