Paco Leon has just set the networks on fire by stating that “series like ‘Elite’ seem like a lot of shit to me” in his participation in the Nude Project podcast. It is true that he did not want to draw blood, clarifying later that “They have their audience. I haven’t seen too much. But at the same time, things with LGTBIQ+ content or diversity are also normalized.” Come on, one of lime and one of sand, but the negative comment has been so harsh that the creators of ‘Elite’ They have not been slow to respond.
The creators’ response
Has been Darius Madrona the first to react by highlighting via twitter that “andn awards galas where we competed with “Arde Madrid”, people from his team were wonderful, but Paco León looked at us as if we had bedbugs“, what Carlos Montero He jokingly commented that “and me thinking that he didn’t like me and you can see that it wasn’t personal, just that our series seemed like shit to him. What a relief“.
Obviously, they didn’t feel good about León saying something like that about his series, but perhaps it was the fact of doing it in public, because Madrona highlighted that “I don’t think it’s hate, whatever. He has an opinion, like everyone else. What happens is that with a microphone in front everything seems bigger (and because it is, you have to be careful)“. For his part, Montero has settled the issue with the following comment:
Next time I’ll tell him what hits like our shit his experiment has produced. Without acrimony.
Let’s remember that León is currently promoting the premiere of ‘Rainbow’, a movie made exclusively for NetflixHence, that comment makes a lot of sense. After all, ‘Elite’ is one of the most popular series on Netflix, so the streaming platform will most likely earn more from the adventures of the Las Encinas students than from what it gets thanks to the new feature film from the director of ‘Kiki, love is made’.
