Streaming giant Netflix is set to release a gripping new series, La Palma, on December 12.

The series opens with a catastrophic volcanic eruption, triggering a tsunami that puts millions at risk. Spanning four episodes, La Palma stars Anders Baasmo, Ingrid Bolsø Berdal, Thea Sofie Loch Næss, Thorbjørn Harr, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, and Johannes Joner in lead roles.

The show is directed by Danish filmmaker Kasper Barfoed, a seasoned Netflix collaborator known for his work on series like Nurse and Chestnut. La Palma promises not only breathtaking depictions of natural disasters but also intense drama, reminiscent of Scandinavian storytelling at its best. It’s poised to follow in the footsteps of disaster hits like The Impossible, starring Naomi Watts, Ewan McGregor, and a young Tom Holland.


The plot focuses on a group of Norwegian tourists vacationing in the Canary Islands. Their idyllic holiday is shattered by the eruption, plunging them into a desperate struggle for survival. The creative team has vowed to push the boundaries of visual effects, setting a new benchmark for Norwegian productions.

La Palma lands on Netflix December 12.
