Earlier today, WarnerMedia confirmed that it is a wrap for "Bunker", Max Original’s new production shot in Mexico exclusively for HBO Max, the new streaming platform scheduled to arrive in the region next June. “Bunker is yet another example of the huge talent and quality of production work in Latin America. Even in the middle of the pandemic, in a challenging context of strict protocols, big efforts are made to continue to tell the best stories and bring them to our audiences throughout the region. This brilliant production by Bunker will be a great addition to WarnerMedia’s varied content factory,” said Ricardo Pichetto, Production Head WarnerMedia Latin America.
 
With productions such as "Bunker", HBO Max will offer a broad range of high-quality Latin American original content featuring the best local storytellers and talents, with an authentic, relevant voice, and will bring a unique and new entertainment experience to audiences throughout the region. The shooting of the show started back in January, hand in hand with the production firm Dopamine; the whole cast and crew made sure to comply with the health protocol required by WarnerMedia Latin America.
 
“This has been a new and challenging experience for all of us, but we took on our responsibility with rigor and patience; health and safety always came first. We want to thank everyone involved for going the extra mile with this; we also want to thank our colleagues at WarnerMedia for their confidence and for the great teamwork done over the last few weeks,” explained Fidela Navarro, Dopamine’s CEO.
