Production
Written by Alana S. Portero, Mi querida señorita is a free adaptation of the 1972 film Mi querida señorita, written in turn by Jaime de Armiñán and José Luis Borau.[1] The project was first unveiled by Netflix in February 2024 as a project to be produced by Los Javis (Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo).[2] It was later pitched by the streaming platform in September 2024 at the 72nd San Sebastián International Film Festival within a slate of future Spanish original films, with Netflix reporting the director and screenwriter to be respectively Fernando G. Molina and Alana S. Portero.[3]
The film is a Suma Content (Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo) production for Netflix. Shooting began on 3 February 2025 in Pamplona, Navarre.[4] On 6 February 2025, Netflix announced the main cast members, including Elisabeth Martínez (portraying the protagonist of the film), as well as Anna Castillo, Paco León, Nagore Aranburu, Manu Ríos, Eneko Sagardoy, Lola Rodríguez, María Galiana, and Delphina Bianco.[1] According to Molina, doing the portrayal of intersex reality with an intersex leading actress (Martínez) was key for the project since its inception as well as a casting challenge.[4]
Carlos Rigo Bellver served as director of photography, choosing an ARRI Alexa 35 and Panavision G Series lenses.[5] Shooting was halted in its tenth day in the wake of a health issue suffered by Molina.[6] Shooting resumed the following week in Madrid.[7]
Release
The film will be released on Netflix.
