TheWrap

The second half of the Selena Quintanilla drama series is scheduled to premiere on May 14. Netflix also announced that 25 million households around the world watched Part 1, which premiered on Dec. 4. That's far below the viewership of recent Netflix releases like Bridgerton, which Netflix projects will reach 63 million households, and the 41 million households that saw the recently released Season 3 of Cobra Kai. "The series reached the Top 10 list in 23 countries - including the U.S., Mexico, Argentina, Colombia and Peru - and spent 26 consecutive days on the Top 10 list in Mexico. Half of the fans came from the U.S., where it spent its first week in the #1 spot on the Top 10 list," Netflix said in a press release. "And the Selena excitement extended far beyond Netflix. On Spotify, her music streams skyrocketed 260% during the launch of Selena: The Series. Selena’s listeners also increased by 90% during the same period, reaching 5 million monthly listeners." Netflix adds that Part 2 of Selena: The Series "chronicles the years of hard work and sacrifice the Quintanilla family navigate together as she becomes the most successful female Latin artist of all time."
