show, and I love the character—so many multi-dimensional phases. He is a very strong character and I love to do that; I love strong characters. The story was amazing—I loved it—I just jumped in,” he said. And there is nothing that Cardona would change about the show or his character, Alex. “Why would I change something? It’s the number one show in the world, why change something…then it will become number two,” he laughed. “Just kidding. I like how it is. I like the story and writers, and I trust them. Of course, I have my opinions, but most of the things are great.” Cardona explained that in season two Alex realizes that he didn’t know his sister—and what she was involved in. “He is going to start searching for that, to try to know about the past and what happened” he explained. “Season two is reloaded, it’s explosive, and amazing, and actually better than the first one, which is very hard to do. People are going to have answers, and that’s the most important thing when somebody follows a story, and you give them the answers they are looking for. I think that’s a great payoff.” And the promise of these answers is what made 55 million Netflix subscribers’ binge on season one. Season one premiered in March 2021, and in less than two months season two was released in May. “We had been filming in Guadalajara and Mexico City. We shot during pandemic—we were in the middle of season one, and then the pandemic arrived, and we had to stop for six months. Then we received a call that we were going back with all the protocols. The good news was that Netflix had already seen first episodes and had seen what we had shot. And said, you guys are going to come to finish the first season, and we just gave the green light for the second season,” explained Cardona. So, the entire crew of ¿Quién Mató a Sara? (Who Killed Sara?) finished filming the first season, and then immediately continued to film the second season. Which lead to the release of season one and two to be very close. However, a season three has not been confirmed yet. “Hopefully, I would love to do more Who Killed Sara, it’s an amazing group.” Cardona has a lot of upcoming work, between three announced mini-series and a couple movies currently in post-production he’s keeping busy and keeping fans at the edge of their seats. “Right now, the direction of my career is doing more premium shows, fewer episodes—not than many—where you can really develop a story in 6-10 episodes, not 100. I will go in that direction for sure.” Seasons one and two are out now on Netflix. Catch up on all 18 episodes of ¿Quién Mató a Sara? (Who Killed Sara?) today.
