S o Paulo, May 5, 2026 - Its time for the kickoff! Netflix has just released the trailer and poster for Brazil 70: The Third Star, a drama miniseries premiering on May 29 that follows the Brazilian national teams journey to its third World Cup title at the 1970 tournament in Mexico.

In the trailer, we follow Brazils attempt to regain soccers ultimate crown from its European rivals after its defeat at the 1966 World Cup. As it strives to restore the nations pride, the Brazilian team starts to prepare with Pel (Lucas Agr cola) as its star, first under Jo o Saldanha (Rodrigo Santoro), and later under Zagallo (Bruno Mazzeo).

With Jo o Saldanha dismissed, as the conflicts of the harshest period of the military regime rage on, M rio Zagallo takes over as head coach and ushers in a new phase. Inheriting an already assembled team, he takes charge of a side that must overcome instability and stay united both on and off the pitch on the road to glory.

From the recreation of memorable plays to the behind-the-scenes moments that helped cement the teams legacy, the miniseries revisits the squads journey under the enormous pressure of representing an entire country. The all-star cast includes names such as Tost o (Ravel Andrade), F lix (Hugo Haddad), Carlos Alberto (Caio Cabral), Jairzinho (Gui Ferraz), G rson (Fillipe Soutto) and Rivellino (Daniel Blanco). The series directed by Paulo Morelli and Pedro Morelli, with Quico Meirelles also directing several episodes, was created by Nan Xavier and Rafael Dornellas. Production is led by Paulo Morelli and Pedro Morelli, alongside Cristina Abi, with Gustavo Gontijo as executive producer. Felipe SantAngelo shares final screenplay credits with Nan Xavier. The cast also includes Marcelo Adnet (Eus bio Teixeira), Bruna Mascarenhas (Rosemeri), Maicon Rodrigues (Paulo C zar Caju), Val Perr (M rio Am rico), Lara Tremouroux (Rosa), Felipe Fraz o (Leo), Victor Salom o (Dad Maravilha) and Jos Beltr o (Parreira).
