Following the global success of the Norwegian Netflix hit La Palma (2024) - currently ranked as the 8th most-watched non-English TV title globally on Netflix with 70.3M views - Netflix announced the standalone sequel during the media conference Nordic Media Days in Bergen: The new event mini-series Florida (working title). The series is expected to premiere in 2027.

Created by the acclaimed team behind The Quake and La Palma, Florida picks up just hours after the volcanic eruption on the island of La Palma, shifting the focus to a Norwegian community in Florida that is still unaware that a devastating tsunami is on its way.

The series is produced by Fantefilm - known for its Scandisaster productions, including La Palma - directed by Cecilie Mosli (The Snowsister, Grey's Anatomy), and written by Lars Gudmestad (La Palma, The Burning Sea).

Screenwriter Lars Gudmestad: To be able to make Florida is a dream I have had for a long time, and I am very pleased that Netflix also believes in the project. Our ambition is to create a spectacular disaster series with characters audiences can mirror themselves in and truly care about, and that's why it's so reassuring to have such a talented and experienced director like Cecilie with us on this journey.

Director Cecilie Mosli: People confronted with crises are the most fascinating starting point for drama. With La Palma, Lars Gudmestad, Fantefilm and Netflix demonstrated the power of combining large-scale disasters with intimate human stories, and I am very proud and happy to be part of the new project, Florida.

H kon Briseid, Director for Series at Netflix Nordic: Norwegian members - and audiences worldwide - have embraced the Scandisaster genre with exceptional enthusiasm, proving there's a real appetite for smart, character driven disaster stories. The team behind La Palma is a master of the genre, and Florida raises the stakes, turning up the tension and emotion in a bold new setting. Fans of La Palma will get all the intensity, scale and heart they loved the first time around, while Florida also stands entirely on its own - ready to thrill and delight a whole new wave of Netflix members.
