North Road Company Expands with Acquisition of Perro Azul

Peter Chernin’s North Road Company has made a strategic move by acquiring the Mexican production powerhouse Perro Azul.

Perro Azul: A Proven Leader in Latin American Content

Known for producing Netflix’s most-watched series in Mexico and Latin America, Who Killed Sara? (¿Quién mató a Sara?), Perro Azul marks North Road’s inaugural acquisition in Latin America. This acquisition is a key step in enhancing North Road’s international footprint.

Leadership Continuity at Perro Azul

The founding partners of Perro Azul, Alexis Fridman and Juan Uruchurtu, will continue to lead the company alongside executive producers Diego Rabasa and Julián de Tavira. They will report directly to Jan Frouman, president of North Road International.

A Diverse Production Portfolio

Established in 2019, Perro Azul boasts a robust production portfolio that includes The Secret of the River (El Secreto Del Río), which became Netflix’s most popular Spanish-language show in October 2024. Other notable hits include Queens on the Run (Fuga de Reinas), Nothing to See Here (Ojitos De Huevo), and Daughter From Another Mother (Madre Solo Hay Dos).

Strategic Vision for Latin America

“Latin America is one of the world’s most exciting and rapidly growing regions for content, presenting incredible opportunities to engage with global audiences. Perro Azul is the ideal partner for us in this vibrant market. Alexis, Juan, Diego, Julián, and the entire Perro Azul team have cultivated a company that is highly respected for its innovative storytelling and top-notch production quality. We are excited to welcome them to North Road as we showcase their bold and beloved projects on the global stage and continue our strategic international expansion,” stated Frouman and Scott Manson, president of North Road.

Continued International Growth

This acquisition is part of North Road’s ongoing strategy to broaden its international presence, following the purchase of Karga Seven Pictures, a leading creator and producer of scripted film and television in Turkey. North Road’s international co-productions include Bad Boy, an Israeli series from the original creator of Euphoria, Heart of a Killer, a medical thriller featuring Tehran star Niv Sultan, and Suture, a Brazilian series from international Emmy winner Zasha Robles, now available on Prime Video in Latin America and Portugal.
