'La Máquina' delivers an emotional punch, reuniting Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna

The Mexican actors and friends reunite for Hulu's Spanish-language series that centers on an aging boxer and his manager, who gets him one more fight.

In 'La Máquina,' a Spanish-language series premiering Wednesday on Hulu, Gael García Bernal plays Esteban Osuna, nicknamed La Máquina, a middle-age boxer nearing the end of his career and ready for something else.

Bringing in the criminal element, of course, puts extra pressure on the characters beyond the question of whether an underdog will triumph or a washed-up competitor come back. Why it needed to be a mysterious omnipotent organization, I don't know; perhaps plain old racketeers and crooked gamblers feel insufficiently nefarious to power a boxing story in 2024. As 'La Máquina' goes on, the sports story becomes secondary to the mystery — the who and why of which nobody knows.
