It all started two years ago, when Prime Video announced the premiere of the movie My mistake. It has now been turned into the most successful Spanish teen epic on the platform, and at the time was just another adaptation made for young adults. It was based on the novel of the same name by the writer Mercedes ron And everything indicates that it will pass painlessly and glorylessly through the streaming catalogue… at least for those who don’t know Wattpad or the power of teenagers to turn what they like into an absolute hit.
Novels young adults (ya) Since then, it’s turned into a goldmine for production companies, but no one has benefited from it as much (and as well) as Prime Video. This is confirmed by readers, who always fear that the adaptation will not meet their expectations, but feel some security when this platform decides to transfer their favorite novel to the screen.
It’s its history that supports it as the platform that best understands what teens want to see today. It is not enough to adapt every novel that a young person reads on Wattpad or bought in a bookstore. If this is done, it must be done well, because they will be the first to criticize it if it is not what they hoped for. In this sense, Prime can boast of always having the best ratings in this regard.
Such has been the success of the Culpables saga (which has now ended with the premiere of… Our mistake he October 16) Which the platform launched earlier this year My mistake: Londonthe English version, which with its differences made viewers fall in love with Noah and Nick again. Then there Maxton Halladapted from the German novel Save me Which this time swept in a serial format.
But this is not the end at all: Prime Video has several other NOW titles up its sleeve Which he presented at the Prime Video Retreat organized in Ibiza for the premiere of the film Our mistake. From continuing with your favorite actors to new titles and faces, what is clear is that young people have several months of new obsessions ahead of them.
House of Rum
“It has been a dream come true to see my characters and stories come to life on screen and connect with audiences around the world,” Mercedes Rhone said at the presentation organized by the platform. “I’m excited to know that fans will be able to continue to enjoy more stories with those characters they love so much and meet new characters as we continue to expand this universe together.”
This is how the author presented House of Rumthe name they gave to the cooperation between her and the platform, which will lead to 10 amendments to her novels: My mistake, your mistake, our mistake, my mistake: London; Your mistake: London, our mistake: London, tell me quietly, tell me a secret, Ivory and ebony.
In addition, the platform also took the opportunity to announce some dates: after the movie premiere Our mistake In October, Tell me calmly Arrives in December with Alessia Falco, Fernando Lindes and Diego Vidalis As heroes, while the second installment, Tell me a secretFilming has started now.
As for My mistake: LondonPrime shared the first images from the second batch, Your mistake: LondonWhile the heroes, Matthew Broome and Asha Banksrolls of the third and final part. Ivory and ebonyfrom the Enfrentados saga, is Ron’s third collaboration with Prime Video, and filming has also already been completed with Esther Gallery and Hugo Diego Garcia Giving life to the daughter of a Spanish businessman and his bodyguard respectively.

Outside of Spain, YA continues to strengthen with much-loved titles and other games that promise to become a new obsession for teens, starting with the platform’s greater international success, Maxton Hallwhich premieres its second season on November 7 with Damien Hardung and Harriet Herbig Matten As heroes.
“Cinema has no language,” Hardung said at the Part 2 screening when asked about the global success of the German series. Prime Video knows this too, and therefore, in the coming year, there are many youth titles of different nationalities that will flood its catalog:
