Apple TV+ has given a 10-episode series order to a Spanish-language crime drama inspired by the true stories of Mexico’s first female police force.

Set in 1970, Las Azules tells the story of four women who defy the ultra-conservative norms of the time and join Mexico’s first female police force, only to discover that their squad is a publicity stunt to distract the media from a brutal serial killer.

Currently in pre-production in Mexico City, the series will feature an entirely Hispanic cast and crew, led by Ariel Award nominee Bárbara Mori (La Negociadora, El Complot Mongol, La Mujer De Mi Hermano).

Las Azules was created by International Emmy Award-winning showrunner and director Fernando Rovzar (Monarca, Sr Ávila) and Pablo Aramendi (José José, Tijuana). Executive producers are Wendy Riss (Yellowstone, The Killing), Erica Sanchez Su (Monarca) and Billy Rovzar (Control Z).

The drama joins a growing number of Apple originals from global storytellers including the English- and Spanish-language thriller Now & Then and Echo 3 – a new action thriller set between South America and the US, written by producer and writer Mark Boal.
