On March 25, Netflix unveiled the initial images and a trailer for 'Brasil 70 – The Saga of the Tri', a fictional miniseries focusing on the Brazilian national football team's path to victory at the 1970 World Cup. Scheduled for release in 2026, this production features notable actors such as Lucas Agrícola, portraying Pelé, along with Rodrigo Santoro as coach João Saldanha and Bruno Mazzeo as Mário Zagallo. Other characters, including Tostão, Félix, and Carlos Alberto, are also portrayed by a talented cast, bringing to life the vibrant history of Brazilian football.

The miniseries not only dramatizes classic moments from the World Cup but also delves into the context surrounding the team’s historic victory, which took place in Mexico. Set against the backdrop of Brazil's military dictatorship, the narrative highlights the pressures placed on the athletes both on and off the field. This layering of historical context aims to evoke the national pride tied to this championship, while also addressing the complex socio-political atmosphere of the time.

Produced by Netflix in partnership with O2 Filmes, 'Brasil 70' promises a rich visual storytelling experience, recreating significant plays and behind-the-scenes moments from Brazil's third World Cup title. As anticipation builds for the miniseries, it serves as a reminder of Brazil's enduring football legacy and the cultural significance of the 1970 victory in shaping the identity of the nation during a turbulent period.
