    Julio Torres has set his next project with HBO. 

    Following the cancellation of comedy Los Espookys, Torres will return to the premium cable network with Little Films, set to begin production in February 2023. Per the official synopsis, "Julio tells the tale of when he lost a little golden oyster. The people he encounters as he searches for it, and the musings he has along the way, become points of departure for introspective, often eerie comedic stories about outsiders navigating an increasingly corporate and rapidly dysfunctional New York City."

    Torres serves as creator, writer, star, executive producer, and director for Little Films, which will also be executive produced by Dave McCary, Emma Stone, Alex Bach, Daniel Powell, Olivia Gerke, Ali Herting, and produced by Charles Miller. 

     "We here at Julio™️ are so excited to be joined by many friends in weaving these fantastical stories shot entirely on stages," said Torres in a statement.
