"Narcos", a Netflix original series chronicling the life of infamous drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, will premiere on September 2.
"Narcos" chronicles the gripping real-life stories of the infamous drug kingpins of the late 1980s and the corroborative efforts of law enforcement to meet them head on in brutal, bloody conflict.
Its gritty storytelling revolves around the often-conflicting forces - legal, political, police, military and civilian - that clash in the effort to control cocaine, one of the world's most valuable commodities.
Wagner Moura, best known for his roles in "Elite Squad" and "Elysium", portrays the role of Escobar while "Gone Girl" star Boyd Holbrook and "Game of Thrones" star Pedro Pascal are in the role of real-life DEA agents Steve Murphy and Javier Pena.
"Elite Squad" director Jose Padilha Eric Newman, best known for "Children of Men", are the executive producers of the series. Narcos is produced by Gaumont International Television for Netflix.
