Netflix series Olympo gets a steamy new trailer and release date

Netflix has dropped a new teaser trailer for upcoming series Olympo.

The series, from the producers of Elite (so you know it’s gay), was first announced by the streaming giant last year. That was followed by a sweaty and sexy trailer.

The show will “delve into the sporting, emotional and life adventures of a group of elite young athletes who will have to test how far they are willing to go to achieve their goals.”

An official synopsis goes on to say: “At the [fictional] Car Pirineos, the best athletes in the country train, such as Amaia (Clara Galle), the captain of the national artistic swimming team, a self-demanding girl who does not allow herself to make mistakes.

“But when Nuria (María Romanillos), her best friend and teammate, surpasses her for the first time, Amaia realises that some athletes are improving their performance in inexplicable ways.

“After years of pushing their bodies to the limit and sacrificing their lives for the sport, they face the dilemma: how far are they willing to go?”

The new trailer, which dropped on Wednesday (30 April), shows the cast fight to get to the top of a human pyramid and emerge the victor. As athletic, muscular and sweaty figures clamber over one another, some are interacting more competitively than their teammates, while others appear more supportive and intimate.

Images of the show released earlier this year also point to some LGBTQ+ characters.

Images show two male swimmers sharing what appears to be an intimate moment in a locker room, while Galle and Romanillos are seen relaxing together by the pool.

Olympo is set to debut on 20 June.
