David Ulloa comments that, “as El Centro is a spy series, the challenge was not to stop there but to give it a twist, going as deep as we could into each of our characters. We directors are not so different from these spies: emotional vampires who sneak into people's private lives and observe without being seen. Through this we will understand our protagonist's commitment to a higher cause, despite the sacrifice it entails.” He goes on to say, “how do you keep this fine balance between your vocation as a member of the CNI and family stability? How do you manage not to lose your sanity in this world of half-truths, mistrust and sometimes betrayal? We will direct from the shadows,  with a well-prepared cover and hoping that our presence goes by unnoticed,” he concludes.

El Centro is a Movistar Plus+ original series in collaboration with Fonte Films. Its executive producers are Susana Herreras and Fran Araújo (Movistar Plus+) and Pablo Isla, Carla Pérez de Albéniz and Fátima Dapena (Fonte Films). It is exported by Movistar Plus+ International.
