Produced by Producciones Mandarina, it follows five women in contemporary Spain whose separate conflicts, involving extortion, oppression, deception, exclusion, and manipulation, unfold like a butterfly effect, one triggering the next, until they reach a shared catharsis[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage).\n\n| Key fact | Detail |\n|---|---|\n| Original title / language | *Furia*; European Spanish[2](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/rage_2025) |\n| Creator | Félix Sabroso, who also directs and writes; produced by Producciones Mandarina[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage) |\n| Season 1 | 8 episodes, about 35 minutes each, premiered July 11, 2025 on HBO Max[3](https://premiardatum.se/serie/rage/) |\n| Season 1 cast | Carmen Machi (Marga), Candela Peña (Nat), Cecilia Roth (Victoria), Nathalie Poza (Adela), Pilar Castro (Vera), Claudia Salas (Tina), Alberto San Juan (Roberto), Ana Torrent[4](https://www.tvinsider.com/show/rage/) |\n| Season 2 | Renewed December 3, 2025; premiered October 9, 2026 with 8 weekly Friday episodes and a new ensemble including Maribel Verdú[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage) • [5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/rage_2025/s02) |\n| Viewership | HBO Max Spain's third most-watched premiere since 2021, behind new seasons of *House of the Dragon* and *The Last of Us*[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage) |\n| Awards | Special jury prize for the leading cast at the European Rose d'Or Awards; Ondas Award for Best female performance[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage) |\n\n## Spoilers\n\n### Premise and structure\n\nThe first season is built around five female characters in a single shared, contemporary universe, each leading her own conflict. The stories are told in episodes named for their central pairings or characters, such as \"Marga & Tina\", \"Nat\", \"Vera\", \"Adela\", and \"Victoria\", with episodes running roughly 32 to 39 minutes[3](https://premiardatum.se/serie/rage/). The five conflicts escalate in sequence, one as a consequence of the other, until the women reach a shared catharsis; [Warner Bros. Discovery](https://www.edgepedia.org/warner-bros-discovery) describes the result as a kaleidoscopic portrait of the current social moment, told with high doses of irony and humor[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage).\n\nDuring season one, the painter Marga (Carmen Machi) hires Tina (Claudia Salas), a housemaid carrying the baby of Marga's husband Roberto (Alberto San Juan); the cast further features Vera (Pilar Castro), a friend of Marga's, the shop clerk Nat (Candela Peña), Adela (Nathalie Poza), who is Tina's mother, and the neighbor Victoria (Cecilia Roth), each of them out for revenge[6](https://www.metacritic.com/tv/rage-2025/).\n\n### Season 2\n\nHBO announced the renewal on December 3, 2025. The second installment stars a new ensemble cast while retaining several returning cast members from the first season; Sabroso explained that he chose new actresses and storylines because it was \"riskier and more honest to offer new ideas so that the story could continue with the same strength\", while keeping some of the most beloved first-season characters[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage).\n\nSeason 2, subtitled *Furia Parte 2* on Hulu, premiered on October 9, 2026 and releases one episode each Friday through November 27, 2026[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/rage_2025/s02) • [7](https://blog.reelgood.com/how-to-watch-rage-season-2-outside-the-us). Its five central storylines introduce uptight streaming executive Raquel ([Maribel Verdú](https://www.edgepedia.org/maribel-verdu)), who must conceal her past to survive at an increasingly bewildering corporation; hard-partying cleaner Charo, whose relationship with her violent son pushes her into a desperate decision; Charo's neighbor Patricia, who abandons her cancer treatment to follow a purported television \"healer\"; Carla, an aspiring actress trapped in a toxic relationship with a struggling musician; and Tina, who discovers her traumatic life story has been turned into a dramatized television series[8](https://www.hulu.com/series/rage-302c7840-42a6-4016-a366-68e1a6cd049d). In the season's first episode, Tina vows to find out who is behind the dramatized series about her past, Leo's jealousy surges when Carla begins filming a production called *Doméstica*, Raquel questions her position at the streaming service Núcleo, Patricia conceals the progress of her cancer, and Charo makes a life-altering decision[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/rage_2025/s02).\n\n## Reception and awards\n\nSeason 1 holds a 100% Tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 5 reviews[2](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/rage_2025). Metacritic's listed critic reviews include an 80 from *The New York Times*, whose critic Margaret Lyons wrote that everything on the show escalates quickly and that the behaviors are extreme and exciting while the show itself is bright, funny, colorful, and surprising; a 75 from *The A.V. Club*; and a 70 from Decider, which found the structure sometimes dizzying but the performances compelling[9](https://www.metacritic.com/tv/rage-2025/critic-reviews/). Warner Bros. Discovery quoted further praise, including \"One of the best Spanish series of the year\" (Sensacine) and \"brilliant, fun, colorful, and surprising\" (*The New York Times*)[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage).\n\nThe first season brought Carmen Machi, Candela Peña, Cecilia Roth, Nathalie Poza, and Pilar Castro together on screen for the first time, which earned the series a special jury prize for the leading cast at the European Rose d'Or Awards presented by the EBU, and the Ondas Award for Best female performance for the five leading actresses alongside Claudia Salas and Ana Torrent. The series also received nominations at the Premios Feroz (Best comedy series, Best series screenplay, and Best actress for Candela Peña), the Premios Forqué (Best female performance for Candela Peña), and the Premios Iris (Best actress for Candela Peña and Best fiction direction for Félix Sabroso)[1](https://press.wbd.com/us/media-release/hbo-0/hbo-renews-original-spanish-series-rage).\n\n## Distribution\n\nThe series streams on [HBO Max](https://www.edgepedia.org/hbo-max) internationally, with new episodes released simultaneously worldwide[7](https://blog.reelgood.com/how-to-watch-rage-season-2-outside-the-us). In the United States it is available through HBO Max and via the HBO Max add-on on Hulu and the HBO Max Prime Video Channel[8](https://www.hulu.com/series/rage-302c7840-42a6-4016-a366-68e1a6cd049d) • [7](https://blog.reelgood.com/how-to-watch-rage-season-2-outside-the-us). German-language coverage refers to the series as *Wut*, and streaming platforms list it as *Rage* or *Rage (Furia)* depending on the view[10](https://www.sueddeutsche.de/erfahrungen/rage-staffel-2-streamen/).\n\n## References\n\n1.
