✨Superstar (2025) – Tamara, Yurena & Spain’s Most Unlikely Pop Icon: Cast, Plot, Release Date & Streaming Details on Netflix

✨Superstar – Tamara, Yurena, and the Rise of Spain’s Most Unlikely Icon Streaming July 18 on Netflix

In the wild, outrageous, and unforgettable media circus of early 2000s Spain, one name blazed across tabloids and TV screens like a comet — Tamara, later known as Yurena. Netflix’s newest limited series, Superstar, premiering July 18, dives headfirst into the glitter, the chaos, the heartbreak, and the fame of one of Spain’s most enigmatic pop culture icons.

🎤 Who Is Tamara/Yurena?

More than a singer, more than a media sensation — Tamara was a cultural phenomenon. With a persona so unique it defied categories, Tamara captured Spain’s attention with her music, eccentric style, and appearances on some of the most controversial talk shows of the time. Superstar reimagines her journey with boldness and heart, tracing her transformation into Yurena, the ultimate underdog turned unintentional icon.

👠 Behind Every Icon…

At Tamara’s side through the rollercoaster ride of fame was her fiercely protective mother, Margarita Seisdedos, played with warmth and fire by Rocío Ibáñez. Together, they faced the spotlight — and sometimes the firing squad of public opinion — with stubborn pride and unapologetic authenticity.

Orbiting this magnetic duo is a constellation of other real-life misfits who became media sensations in their own right:

• Leonardo Dantés (Secun de la Rosa),

• Loly Álvarez (Natalia de Molina),

• Paco Porras (David Areces),

• Arlequín (Julián Villagrán).

Together, they form a dysfunctional, dazzling, and often misunderstood cultural phenomenon — Spain’s Y2K-era media royalty.

🎬 The Creative Power Behind It All

Superstar is brought to life by acclaimed filmmaker Nacho Vigalondo (Timecrimes, Colossal) and produced by the visionary duo Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi (Veneno, La Mesías). With their signature mix of irony, empathy, and glam, they craft a story that’s not just about celebrity — it’s about identity, media madness, and the right to be unapologetically yourself.

🎶 More Than Just Music

While Superstar pays homage to Tamara’s musical career, it also explores the cost of fame, the absurdity of tabloid culture, and the beauty of staying true to your weird, wonderful self in a world that demands conformity.

The series doesn’t just reenact history — it reframes it. Through stylized visuals, emotional depth, and a healthy dose of camp, Superstar becomes a love letter to outsiders who dared to shine.

💫 Why You Should Watch

• It’s a nostalgic deep dive into early 2000s Spanish pop culture.

• It’s hilarious, heartbreaking, and glamorously bizarre.

• It reclaims a cultural figure who was once ridiculed — and celebrates her resilience.

📺 Final Note

Whether you remember Tamara from her tabloid days or are just discovering her story for the first time, Superstar will leave you stunned, laughing, and maybe even shedding a tear. It’s camp. It’s culture. It’s unfiltered fame.

🗓️ Streaming July 18, only on Netflix

🌟 Every icon has a story. This one’s just a little louder.
