We just saw something pretty cool pop up on Netflix: “Mexico 86”! You know the FIFA World Cup is literally about to kick off, right?

Next week! It’s going to be a massive party in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Mexico gets to host for the third time. How wild is that?

This timing is spot on for the new show. “Mexico 86” takes you way back. It’s all about what was happening off the field during that legendary World Cup year.

Not just the soccer. It’s the drama, the moments nobody saw. And guess who’s making it all shine?

Diego Luna! He totally scores in this one. We mean it. His performance is fantastic.

The whole show has this amazing, warm, 80s aesthetic. Think vibrant colors, a bit of that classic film look. It feels light and breezy, which is a nice change of pace.

It’s a look back that doesn’t feel heavy. Just pure, retro fun. Super visual.

We really enjoyed “Mexico 86.” It’s perfect if you’re excited for the upcoming World Cup, or even if you just love a good story. Diego Luna? Always a pleasure.

It’s a breezy watch that pulls you into a cool slice of history. Go check it out!
