'Lies and Deceit' Season 1: Everything We Know About This Netflix Thriller Series

The Spanish thriller series 'Lies and Deceit' is set to premiere on Netflix in March. The mystery series is based on a book by Harry and Jack Williams called 'Lies and Deceit,' which was first published at the start of the epidemic under the title 'Mentiras,' but was later altered to 'Lies and Deceit.'

Season 1 of 'Lies and Deceit' was originally planned for November 2021 release but it was moved and set to a later date to March 4, 2022 on the streaming giant Netflix.

Laura Munar, played by Angela Cremonte, is a literature instructor in the series. She has a nagging hunch that she was date-raped by a well-known surgeon one morning (played by Javier Rey). This exact meeting is revisited in the mystery-thriller series.

Laura Munar is also seeking justice in an ongoing legal lawsuit against the surgeon, although the surgeon denies her account of what transpired.

It's a guarantee that this Spanish series will tell us all sides of the story, leaving us to ponder whether Laura or Javier is the actual liar.

Angela Cremonte as Laura Munar. The rest of the cast includes Javier Rey, Manuela Velasco, Paco Tous, Clara Segura, Miquel Fernaandez and Eva Llorach.

The Spanish thriller is the masterpiece of Curro Novellas, who is both the writer and director of the series. He was also the backbone of Netflix's 'High Seas' (also called 'Alta Mar').

Currently, he is working as an executive producer on the TV series, 'Los Protegidos: El regreso', to be released on Atresplayer Premium.

'Lies and Deceit' received pretty great reviews from Bluper, an entertainment column from a Spanish newspaper. The column added that the series is “necessary”, and also praises the series' cinematography. What's more, the series has scored a high 6.9 out of 10 on IMDb.

The series was broadcasted initially on the Spanish SVOD service, but will now be released on Netflix.
