Veneno (previously Veneno: Vida y Muerte de un Icono) is a Spanish biographical television limited series, created by Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo that aired on Atresplayer Premium in Spain from 29 March to 25 October 2020. The series, which tells the life and death of Spanish transgender singer and television personality Cristina Ortiz Rodríguez, better known by the nickname "La Veneno", is based on the biography ¡Digo! Ni puta ni santa. Las memorias de La Veneno by Valeria Vegas.[1][2]
The full season was scheduled to be released on 29 March 2020 on subscription streaming platform Atresplayer Premium but, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, production and post-production could not be completed. Thus, only the first of eight episodes aired on that date.[3] The second episode aired on 28 June 2020.[4] The third episode aired on 20 September 2020, and the rest of the episodes were released on a weekly basis.[5] The series' soundtrack including cover versions by Amaia, Álex de Lucas and Jedet as well as the original song "Nunca Debiste Cruzar el Mississippi" by Leiva, was released on digital platforms on 29 October.[6]
Veneno premiered internationally on HBO Max starting 19 November 2020.[7]
A sequel series, Vestidas de azul, premiered in December 2023.[8]
