From Variety: "Globomedia readies werewolf thriller 'Moon'"

I came across the following in Variety (http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118045803?refCatId=19):

MADRID -- Spain's Globomedia, one of Europe's leading scripted TV producers, is readying two new dramas, "Luna, el misterio de Calenda" (Moon), and an untitled comedy set at a fashion magazine.

A 19th-century werewolf thriller, "Moon" toplines Belen Rueda ("The Orphanage"), one of Spain's biggest box office draws, as a judge sent to investigate mysterious occurrences in the benighted village of Calenda.

Spanish broadcast network Antena 3 will co-produce and air the skein in primetime. Series rolls next Monday. Imagina Intl. Sales, which is owned by the Imagina Group, a j.v. of Globomedia and Mediapro, will handle international sales.

[...] Globomedia's new series are high concept and break new ground for the local biz -- for example, Spain's never had a werewolf series -- and mix genres -- "Moon" has a teen romance story strand, with the judge's daughter falling for a local civil guard officer (Fran Perea).

Both series will be budgeted north of Spain's average Euros500,000 ($688,000) an episode [...]

Don't expect much more than twilight-esque werewolves. In the best of cases, the will get something in Paul Naschy style. In the worst, prepare for some CGI morph into cute doggies, or just the cheap pointed ears, fake fangs and claws.
