As the volcano erupts, both characters must navigate nature’s fury while developing a connection.

The project highlights the growing presence of Spanish-language content on global streaming platforms, reflecting an increasing international audience interest in Hispanic media productions.

Production Details

“Bajo Un Volcán” is produced by Eduardo Campoy and David Martínez from Secuoya Studios, together with William Levy Entertainment. The film was shot on location in Tenerife, the same island where his telenovela “Camino A Arcadia” was also filmed.

The collaboration between TelevisaUnivision and ViX continues their partnership announced during the company’s 2024-2025 upfronts, signaling a strategic move to expand Hispanic content offerings across different markets.

Future Implications

The release of “Bajo Un Volcán” on ViX represents an opportunity for the streaming platform to attract more international audiences and showcase its commitment to diverse content. For William Levy, it signals a significant step in his acting career, moving from telenovelas to feature films.

As streaming platforms continue to diversify their catalogues, such collaborations between production houses and streaming services are becoming increasingly common, aiming to cater to the evolving tastes of global viewers.

With “Bajo Un Volcán,” ViX and TelevisaUnivision are setting a precedent for future cross-border projects, potentially opening doors for more Hispanic content in international markets. The film’s premiere on November 21, 2025, promises to be an exciting moment for fans of both Levy and Civantos.
