Gabriel García Márquez was hesitant about giving up the rights to adapt his masterpiece, as he thought there was no way to cover the Colombian origin and the sheer length in a Hollywood movie. 'Sometimes he would say we could do it in a hundred hours, and in Spanish in Colombia,' García Márquez's son Rodrigo told Bloomberg.
This series may only be a fraction of those hundred hours, but it is a Spanish-language production that was shot entirely in Colombia, so it's doing the author justice.
For example, Stephen King's Dark Tower series is incredibly popular, but an attempt at a film adaptation completely fell flat. While Mike Flanagan is taking another crack at that story over at Amazon Prime Video, Netflix is going even bigger with an adaptation of one of the most influential books ever.
One Hundred Years of Solitude is a magical realist utopian story that spans generations.
