Prime Video’s English remakes of Mercedes Ron trilogy, and Spanish originals, dominate global originals rankings

Deadline reports that multiple titles from the Mercedes Ron-based film franchise, including both English-language remake entries and Spanish original releases, have taken five spots in Prime Video’s latest global Originals viewing chart, with half of the top 10 going to the series.

Prime Video’s latest global Originals viewing rankings show an unusually heavy concentration of films from the Mercedes Ron film franchise, with five entries from the series appearing in the chart’s top 10, according to Deadline. The outlet reports that the cluster includes both Spanish-language originals and English-language remake releases, accounting for half of the top-10 positions in the chart it reviewed.

The Prime Video entries are tied to Mercedes Ron’s New York Times bestselling book trilogy, Deadline said. The franchise’s English-language additions are presented as remakes of the earlier Spanish-language films, and the series’ cross-language format is central to the chart surge described by Deadline.

Deadline’s report says there are five films total in the Prime Video run highlighted in the ranking: three Spanish-language releases and two English-language releases. It also says a third English-language movie in the franchise has already been filmed, indicating that more English-language installments are in production or have progressed beyond the casting and development stage.

The English-language remake run is being marketed under the franchise’s “Your Fault” naming line, while the Spanish-language films carry the corresponding “Culpa” titles, Deadline noted. Deadline also pointed to specific titles including “Culpa Tuya” and “Your Fault” in connection with the period of chart performance it described.

The chart dominance adds another data point for Prime Video’s ongoing strategy of expanding recognizable book and film franchises across major language markets, while keeping the core narrative branding intact. For viewers, it also means simultaneous access to multiple installments across the trilogy’s language versions, at least during the chart window referenced by Deadline.

Deadline did not cite additional studios, release dates, or production timelines beyond what it described in its recap of the chart results. The report, however, frames the ranking as evidence that both the English remakes and Spanish originals are currently finding broad audiences on the platform in the measured period.

As Prime Video continues to release and rank original films globally, the next measurable milestone will be whether the already-filmed English-language installment converts similar viewership momentum into additional top-10 chart placements when it enters the platform’s viewing cycle.

Key details, including exact chart dates, the titles’ specific ranks within the top 10, and the full list of the five charted films, are described in Deadline’s June 24 reporting.

Why It Matters

  • The simultaneous performance of both Spanish originals and English remakes suggests strong, cross-language audience demand for a single story universe, which can influence future acquisition and production decisions.
  • Chart visibility at this scale can affect marketing spend, internal release sequencing, and how platforms prioritize subtitles, dubbing, and language-targeted promotions.
  • Because the series is based on a major bestselling trilogy, sustained audience response can increase the value of downstream rights across formats, sequels, and international distribution.
  • The presence of an English-language installment already filmed indicates the franchise is in a build-out phase, making the next release a potential follow-on test of whether viewership remains concentrated among the trilogy entries.
